PLSSS HELP ME....:??: :??: :??:

If you have exhaust at the front you need intake at the rear so you have a flow going. The filter will catch everything that makes it into the case. You would want the filters on the intakes at the rear.

If you haven't made the rear/top intake, then I presume you have none? That isn't ideal either and means it is pulling air in at non-filtered entry points.

Typical front mounted radiator is filtered intake with rear exhaust. Yes, the air is warmed, but the components inside the rest of the case rely on air flow more so then the minor temperature increase. As long as the hot air gets out and cooler air is coming in then all is good.
