Top Fan Query

Hi All,

 

I've been lucky enough to get myself a new computer with a 5800x and RTX 3070. First time building, so please excuse my cable management. My question is surrounding my PC airflow setup. I had two fans come with the case and I ordered a three pack of AF120's from Corsair. I've got 3 120mm intakes on the front, with an extract on top and to the rear. Is the top fan a poor choice? I had a spare fan so just decided to put it there. Please see picture attached. 

 

Thanks,

 

Jet. 

 

(minor change in that picture is that, for safety, run two 8 pin cables to the GPU, rather than one 8 pin to 2 x 6+2)
