It's pretty straight forward, I got two front intake fans and one exhaust, where should place it? top or rear.

It depends on type of CPU cooler and how it is oriented. If it's tower cooler for instance, best place for rear exhaust fan is to be oriented so it's in same line with cooler.

Mine is a Noctua NH-U12A and it is in the same line as my rear fan screws. But I'm not sure whether it is an exhaust cooler or intake cooler.
