Tips for fan configuration? (Phanteks Evolv x)

kvillega

So I recently built a unit Phanteks Evolv X, and I have the following fan setup: 
 

Front - intake

1. Front Mounted Radiator (ROG Ryuo 240) with a push pull config using the stock fans some inwin sirius loops

2. An extra intake inwin sirius loop at the bottom of the rad 'cause i couldn't find a 360 AIO that i liked

 

Top - Exhaust

1. 2x inwin sirius loop 120's at the top and i used the magnetic cover to prevent air from blowing back in

 

Rear - Exhaust

1. 1x inwin sirius loop 120

 

granted i live in a tropical country (Philippines) but my idle 50-60 and ~70 under load seems a bit high?

 

I read some threads saying switching the top fans to intake might improve temps as well?
