Enthoo ITX airflow

So I have the Enthoo ITX case and the airflow configuration is rather difficult due to the size of the heatsink I have on it (Xigmatek Dark Knight Nighthawk). Due to the motherboard layout it only fit with airflow going vertically. Graphics card is of course drawing air from below it near the power supply shroud. I have a 120mm rear exhaust and the stock 200mm intake. I have any number of extra fans (old stock fans from my H440, some corsair AF120s, etc.) And am wondering if you have some suggestions.

Pushing air top to bottom with the CPU cooler? Or pulling it bottom to top? Top exhaust? Or intake? Your thoughts are appreciated.
