Bitfenix Comrade air flow?

I was wondering if making all the fans blow are into the case would help it be a little cooler.

 

The front only has a little gap on the bottom. I was wondering if switching the rear fan from exhaust to intake would make it cooler.

Probably not since it would interrupt the overall case airflow.

As for reversing the entire airflow of the case altogether, the graphics card would end up getting little airflow.

 

I'm moving the thread to the Air Cooling section.

I would set the fan to intake. It's a great looking case for that low price too. I would probably buy another fan to work as intake.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

The case isn't really optimal for setting up effective cooling. Too few places for fans. So best solution is to have 2 intakes and 1 exhaust. Flipping rear around could even make inside hotter since there isn't really many vents for air to escape.
