[SOLVED] Front Intake Fans Closer or Farther From Front Mesh?

Respectable
I have a Lancool II Mesh case and the front bracket where fans/radiators are mounted can be moved around closer to or farther from the front mesh panel. So my question is, should I have my front intake fans up against the mesh or recessed back further in the case?
 
Solution
Not exactly, though that is nice too.
I meant mostly if fans are recessed too far into the case they will have to suck the air into the fans themselves before blowing it into the case, if they are close to the outside of the case they can more freely draw air in.

Doesn't matter.

I keep mine farther away from my dust filter so they don't generate a weird resonance noise. Same performance.
