I would suggest making those 2 exhausts and putting an intake in the front and another on the side.

Having intake fans in the back brings in the warm air from your PSU. Not the best idear.

if you have room for front fans then i would put one fan in the front as an intake and one in the back as an outtake...then get 2 more fans and put one more outtake in the back and put 1 more intake at the front if it will fit....or stick it in 2 empty 5 1/2in drive bays...you can even fit 2 if you stagger them.
