    Dear Techies

    Sorry to sound so dim but i have installed a Thermaltake smart case fan 2 into my case I followed the instructions. Now the trouble is that I can feel hot air being blown out of the front of the case. Consequently my cd's etc are rather warm! have I installed the fan the wrong way round? Have I done any damage to the cpu?

    Many thanks Hughie

    It should be blowing into the case...flip it over. There is normally an arrow on the side of the fan that denotes the direction of the air flow.
