so you should put two intake in the front and three exhaust one in the back and two on the rad i like to see a positive pressure in the case which this will not achieve but will be best for your setup

you see when i was setting the h100i up corsair showed in the manual to have the fans on radiator to pull air in for better cooling

your fighting the laws of thermal dynamics by pushing hot air down use the natural flow of heat to your advantage

ok so have the 2 radiator fans and back fan pull air out and have 2 front pull air in

also to mention i keep the side of my computer case open so its more accessible and better for cooling

yes and that shouldn't be necessary if you have proper air flow in your case

ok so when i change the fans i mount the fans on top of the radiator right and make them pull heat off radiator

you can mount them to push air through or pull air out doesn't matter much

well there currently set to pull heat off the radiator push the heat down and then the heat to be pulled out of the computer from the single fan at the back so it pulls the air out the back and releases it behind my desk

just to mention also my room temperature hits around 22-28c alone
