Optimal case fan positioning.

Currently my case fans are in the same positions as when I first got them.

 

1 intake on the front 

1 exhaust on the back

1 exhaust on the top

 

Should I try changing this at all for better cooling?

 

thinking of putting the top exhaust fan on the front so I have two intakes for positive air pressure but I want other opinions too.

 

p.s Just came to mind, I have the Zalman Z11 Plus case...This also has two small fans build into the side panels exhausting air from the HDD area

What are your temps? Since case doesn't have extra front intake slot, you can only move fan to bottom. And that only really helps GPU, if that would have issues with temps.
