Fan Configuration?

Ok well. . . I'm  wondering if I'm running too many fans?

 

Should I remove any. . . 

 

I have a Define Mini, my front intake are 2 SP 120's, bottom is an SP120, and I'm exhausting 120 out the back through a rad in push/pull. . . I know I don't really need Push pull but it kinda looks cool.

 

I have added the silence pads to the top and side, but my front intake thats under neath is running on molex (volt adaptor) it does nothing I don't think in terms of cooling, just brings dust to the filter.

How would you configure this case? drive cage is in so I think I should keep the bottom intake?

Sounds fine. It's a bit funny you're using SP120's with a case designed for silence though. I might remove the bottom fan and see if the temps change. It might just make it that much quieter.
