If the heat is not exhausted directly out of the case, I would definitely go with antec.

Their literature -> Guaranteed to deliver its full 1000W output at 50șC operating temperature.
That's 122 degrees Fahrenheit.
** EDIT **
Sorry, that was for the Corsair. I should have mentioned that.

Re: power supply
the fan on the corsair does blowing the air out of the back of the unit but will it cause me any problems if i run it like in picture 2

What are you debating about here? What are you asking?

As long as it's blowing out the back it should work just fine as in picture 2.

Re: power supply
i was just asking if i could run the corsair power supply like in picture 2 as the fan is on the under side rather than being on the back of the unit
