Ok, currently on my case I have 5 120mm fans.

One on the front bringing air in.

One on the back exhausting.

Blow hole on the top exhausting.

The 2 fans on the side of the case are bringing in air.

The question I have is, I am going ot redo the window when my XP-120 comes in so I'm going ot redo the fans ont eh side of the case. The way it's setup now is the fans are one above the other. One is positioned so it's about my video card and the other is above the processor heatsink and fan.

Do I leave them setup like that or do I reposition them?
 
Personally, I'd leave the arrangement alone. Your hottest components (CPU, GPU, and HDDs) all have their own intake fan in that setup. You probably wont be able to gain anything by moving those 2 fans into any other configuration.

As far as an aesthetic point of view, The vertical arrangement screams high performance :D

 
Thanks for the help. I was told to move one of them away from blowing on the CPU for some reason. I've been trying ot find out why for some time now but haven't been able to. Thanks again.
