well you will have the CPU cooler fighting the exhaust fans over where the air goes, but its probably fine

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

here is a bigger irony, my cpu cooler is actually facing the side of the case...blowing hot air out to the opposite side of the PCI-E. This is just a picture that I got off the net and photoshopped.

ahh then its fine, the stock cooler sucks air down but if you have some tower style cooler this looks better

do you recommend that I reverse the back exhaust fan so it faces the front?

Having 2 exhaust fans at 1/2 speed and front at full speed would bring it close to neutral. But for positive you need to remove one of exhausts.
