If you're going to be overclocking both the CPU and GPU card, I'd recommend filling at least four case fan locations. Two intake and two exhaust would be fine for that configuration. What CPU cooler are you going with as that does not come with a stock cooler?

If you'll be using any kind of liquid cooling and will be using relatively high overclocking settings, I'd probably recommend filling all the fan locations since there will be little residual cooling to the motherboard without a CPU mounted air cooler so VRM and northbridge overheating and throttling become real issues in some cases.

Negative vs positive pressure is really irrelevant. The Phantom 410 has front and bottom filters, so dust shouldn't be a giant concern either way and all cases, regardless of pressure differential should be blown out every month or three whether it has good filtration or not.

I'd go with the rear and rear top fans as exhaust and then two front intakes. That should be plenty. If you go with liquid cooling, that will have to be revised somewhat.
