Hi everyone. For about a year now, I've been using my custom built PC and it has worked great! My problem is that my computer gets insanely hot when i game and the is no where the heat can disperse freely into the my room due to the location of my PC. This causes me to sweat like mad, making me feel very uncomfortable during long gaming sessions. My rig is enclosed under my wooden table with a box like structure under my desk to the right of where i sit. The front and the back of the box is completely open, yet PC has little to know room to breath from behind because it is against the wall of my bedroom.

Also, i have recently discovered that the PC's overall airflow on the inside is pretty horrendous. I only have 4 fans. My CPU fan, my GPU fan, and 2 case fans which are facing the wrong direction (I believe). They were like this in the case when I got it and never thought twice they were possibly positioned wrong.
Here's a Picture of the case fan locations.

I understand that I should fix the inside PC airflow issues, but will that help stop the heat from being trapped under my desk at all? Any advice on this topic would be very appreciated. I am willing to move my desk around and change my setup configuration if needed. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you in advanced!
