Hi is this setup the optimal setup for cooling

i get good temps with it in the front, around 28c idle and 70c load, will putting it in the roof help even more, also the psu fan is facing up
 
I'm unable to swap position myself but can get my nephew around to do it for me if it'll be beneficial to temps, if I swap position wouldn't that be a negative airflow, which I got told wasn't ideal and should have more intakes than exhausts
 
Case be quiet Orange Dark Base PRO 900
Motherboard Gigabyte Aorus GA-Z270X-Gaming K5
CPU Intel Core i7-7700K
CPU Cooler Be Quiet. Silent Loop 280
RAM Team Group Dark Pro 16GB 3000MHz
GPU Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Xtreme Premier Pack
SSD Samsung 960 Evo Polaris 500GB
HDD Seagate ST1000DM003 Barracuda
PSU Super Flower Leadex Platinum 650W
OS Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Monitor AOC AGON AG271QG
Blu-Ray Drive Asus DRW-24D5MT

fans are just what came with the case and aio
 
ok so keep fans where they are now except move rad to top and top fan to front, if I disconnect the rear fan I'll have 2 intakes and 2 exhaust, which wasn't ideal
 
ok I understand that, what I don't understand is if I set up as suggested then surely there would be more exhausted air than intake as tha case has dust filters at the front as well as a door
 
thanks so if/when we move rad to top, move the fans currently are top and rear to the front as intake, is that correct, sorry for pestering you just trying to set up my pc the best way for cooling
