First PC Purchase Since 2001!

generally accepted norms are front (and bottom - although i don't suggest using bottom fans due to dust) = intake, back and top = exhaust, for a conventionally designed case.
with the side fans however, i'm unsure how this will affect (or disrupt) airflow.
Yep, front is where it is currently sitting, with it set as an intake. The top fans are set to exhaust, and the bottom are also intake to ensure optimum cooling to the graphics card. So far, so good :) I'm looking at the possibility of adding a back fan to add some exhaust power, but will see how the current setup pans out for now.
 
Certainly seems it at the moment @tamzzy :) I've not seen any temps to get even close to bothering me, but then again the videos I've been editing have all been sub 20 minute.

So far, I am really pleased with the performance of the machine, just got to spend a little time tidying up the cables now, add an external card reader and I think I'll be complete...until the overwhelming urge to add a superwide monitor into the mix takes over :D
