I just bought a small fan thinking it would fit my video card but it didnt so i took apart most of the computer and put in this little fan on the mother board. Well it was kinda dirty in there so I took off my other fans and cleaned them off but now i cant remember if the air was blowing in or out for the processor. Im thinking it would be better blowing in. Let me know. THanks

HSF = HeatSink & Fan but as it's a Cooler Master then it blows into the heatsink. ;)
