I've got a push pull set up atm, pushing in from the front, pulling out through the rear, both 120mm Xilence fans

The CPU cooler is inline with the above and blows through the cooler out towards the rear fan

GPU cooler is blowing out through the PCI slot from the double height card (5750)

I have a space on the side of the case opp the CPU cooler to fit an 80mm fan and have a slim enough fan to fit there.

Question, should it suck into the case or blow out for maximum cooling?
 
Leave it off. Depending on your cooler, The fan will just be blowing on the top of the heatsink and have very little effect. In more cases than not (no pun intended) it also disrupts the natural airflow and increases case temperature.

If you do want in on though to test, Have it blowing in.
