No, no hole. But there's enough space for the psu to breath :up:

Marco is correct, there is no hole under the power supply. The power supply is mounted on two plates that give you about a half of an inch or more of space for the air flow under it. Haven't had any problems with it set up like that and it brings in cool air from the bottom of the case (heat rises and cool air falls). :cool:
depends on the case, some have standoffs which provide a gap for air flow; others don't have enough space (if any) to let the PSU suck in air.
Thanks for the info guys. I'll double check the bottom of my 1200 to make sure there's some space. i7 upgrade this weekend.
Tommy_Hewitt, that "package" looks like a cosmetic mask for your heatsink.
@Tommy_Hewitt:
I'm going to do that to my Baram soon.
It performs slightly worse than my also lapped CM Geminii.
Just 1C or so, but I think it is not perfectly flat.
Well heres my setup. Total of 5 120 mm fans and one more for the OCZ Vendetta 2. I have stuck a small 40X10 mm for the NB.

BAHAHA
Hey Tommy good idea man with that masking tape!
Long time ago I lapped my Ultra-120 regular bare and about half way I sliced my palm with the fins, It wasn't bleeding that bad but it was hell bothersome
On AM2 or AM3 mobos you can mount the vendetta only this way. But since I have 2 120 mm fans sucking air out the top it works very well. My idle temps at 3 ghz 4 cores is 25 degs and load is 32.
Same situation with me and my TRUE, but with the PSU and 140mm roof exhaust temps aren't a problem (not that ever would be with a stock clocked 720BE).... Anyways, the recession hit me and I had to sell all my watercooling gear so i'm back to air, Thermalright goodness on GPU (4870) and CPU (AMD 720BE):

All hardware is in a temporary A17 till I get my P60 back, then i'll be braiding wires properly and making it look good.
@mav2000
Nice and clean wire management are you planning to add more ODD or Hard Drives? I just tore down my centurion 590 for remodeling painting the inside adding a new psu and video card to it and maybe a new cpu 4 core Q9550 from a E8400 there on sale at Micro Center for $169.99 and some new 2x2 G.Skill yours look great...How you like that Biostar TA790GXB board I switched to Biostar from Gigabyte and like the T-Power I45 way better but if...I do a AMD build it gonna be Biostar board 4 sure AM3
Hey thanks the biostar is good for stock clocks and low overclocks. But the higher u go the wrose the vdrop and droop get. So if you plan to be running slight OC's go for it.
Updated the power supply and graphics card.

I'm not very happy with this picture because the green glow of the CPU fan disturbed my shot;

@kvadzio: nice, did you paint the fan?
Who knew the Corsair Dominator fan was actually quite nice under all those ugly stickers?
