thats an intake. hot air exhausts out the back of that model eta: most enthusiasts cases will have fan slot (good ones will have a filter too) on the bottom of the case so the psu can draw clean cool air in.

Well I guess you showed me up.

How is the build going?

Hdmi or dvi will work. Put the windows disc in and set your pc to boot up from the DVD drive in your bios.

I did the chipset first I remember but after that what you want in whatever order i would say. I don't have a lot of experience in that area. I went off the new egg guide myself.
