Placement of case fans

[Equinox666]

I plan to O/C my whole computer to the Max and I need to know where to place fans where it would prove most effective.

I was thinking one 80mm at the front where it has a mounting bracket, and use it for exhaust.
And one at the back to push more air into the case.
Or vice versa?

Can anyone help me out here?

You'll want to have the top rear fan as an exhaust, and the bottom front for intake (hot air rises, you want to get it out as quickly as possible).

You'll probably want to either cut a hole in the side (or rear, next to the ATX connection plate) of your case and put a fan there, or get a card cooler of some sort to help circulate the air around your videocard and processor, but this depends more on the design of the case and how far you're willing to go
