Hi,
I am putting together my new components and have a few questions regarding the best configuration to obtain optimum cooling.
Here is a list of my components:

Questions
1. Should I mount my PSU with fan facing down so it sucks air in from outside the case?
2. Should I mount the radiator at the front of the case with the fans on the inside pulling air into the case?
3. Should I mount 2 Thermaltake fans on top as exhaust and 1 Thermaltake on the back as exhaust?
If this is not the best setup could you please post what it is.
Thanks
