For that setup I would suggest that the top and side be used as intake with the rear as exhaust. The fans on the 212 should exhaust towards the back of the case.

I would highly suggest getting a front intake also, and if you do switching the top to exhaust. This would mean you would have side and front intake, back and top exhaust.

Please learn to use punctuation. I think they teach that in american schools too.

As for cooling, are your temps an issue? If not, then have it front and lower side intake, rear exhaust. If you are having issues with CPU cooling, add single top intake. Every intake needs dust filter.
