The logic is that it uses cool ambient air to cool the PSU and then vents
the warm air back outside the case. A PSU fan does little to ventilate the
inside of a properly designed case with side cover and top mounted fans.
Mounting the PSU on the bottom of the case is a pretty slick design if you
ask me.

Me too, what was the logic of putting the PSU at the bottom of the case?
Are there PSU's available with fans on the top?
