The air 540 is a very big case. You can get a much smaller case, especially if you swap the Corsair RMX PSU for an EVGA G3, and get a Fractal Design Define C; a case 2/3rds the size of the air 540.

It has very decent airflow, the Air 540 will be the best, but its probably a difference of about 100% (air 540) to 85%, nothing really noticeable. The Define C will be quieter, however, because it has sound dampening foam. And as previously mentioned, much smaller (means it will be easier to transport

The position of the fans doesnt matter. Whether you do push or pull, you'll get the same temperatures
