I have a pc tower laying on its side, with the motherboard mounting plate resting on a tempered glass table. my whoile tower does not have ANY side panels, ( its just a bare frame by this point), my question is this... will the heatt ransferrence be any better, then say if i was to have it set up in its normal orientation? i also have a cooler aio on the cpu.

All of the heat generating components are on the top side of the motherboard, not the backside. There is no difference between standing up or lying down on a table.
