ive just build a new machine using one of these cpu coolers.
at the moment i have the fan on the side nearest the back of the case with 2 80mm fans blowing on too the scythe fan. but ive been thinking that this setup puts the heat into the case . tho it means the cpu coolers is always getting the coolest air.
but would i be better putting the scythe fan on the side futherest away from the back of the case. and turn the 2 80 mm round so the sucking hot air out

You want to have it so you blow the hot air to the rear of the case and then have the rear case fans exhausting heat out the back, this should give you the best results, especially if you have a front intake fan pulling in cold air.
