The front of my PC case can be removed.

This gives me option (I think), to install the fans on that outside part of the case

But I am unsure if that's where its supposed to be installed, for I could also install the fans on the side of the front part of the case.

To illustrate what I mean, please refer to the album below.

Picture #1 has the fans installed on the inside part of the case; whereas picture #2 show the fans installed on the outside part of the case when the front part is removed...

Answer: it doesn't matter. I keep my fans on my Pure Base 500DX installed inside the case so they can be a little further from the dust filter to reduce noise generated by turbulence.

The thermal performance will be exactly the same. Install them however way is easier for you.
