These are the parts I got. Is it a good setup or what should I have changed? I also bought a 1 input and two output display port splitter to run both monitors from same DP port on graphic card. Also is there a better way to have the fans placed.

Is there a specific reason you have your back fan as an intake? The back fan mount is not filtered and a lot of dust will get in your precious pc now. The top and front of your case do have filters.

I figured it would have better air flow. I have a small magnetic fan filter over the back fan.

This is the amazon link to what I bought for the back fan.

Is there a better way to have them configured?

I would put the back fan in the front. Right now your back intake fan and the fan on your cpu cooler are now fighting eachother. If you put the fan in the front the cpu cooler fan can work together to get air thru the heatsink and the cpu fan will blow air out the back.
