I will be starting a new build pretty soon (within the next 2 weeks or so), im looking for the best ways to go about keeping my pc as cool as possible.

the case i have bought is a Gigabyte Luxo X10 case

it has optional front fan and two side panel fans

it already has two fans installed on the top of the case and at the rear

if anyone could provide tips on the best way to get decent airflow through this specific case such as which fans to have as intakes and which ones as exhausts.

any other information at all would be much appreciated thank you.
 
I would suggest:
*Front intake fan to CPU cooler to back exhaust fan.
*No fan in lower side vent. It would create turbulence/disturance to front intake fan/CPU cooler/back exhaust fan airflow
*Intake fan in upper side vent to GPU.
*Test with and without top exhaust fans. Let intake fans push air to CPU/GPU & GPU / rear exhaust push air out.
*Clean filters on both intake fans regularly.
