Rad in top with front full of high pressure intake fans. Block (tape over) all openings in front fan mounting panel so all air front intake move into case has to flow on through case, not leak around in front again and end up going in circles.

Rear intake often helps. Easy enough to try out and see.

What other fans are you getting ?

Arctic p12 pst or p14 pst are excellent value to performance.
