I built my pc (spec in my sig) around a year ago but never got a chance to really start pushing it until now. I have resumed folding and the temps inside feel fairly toasty. Here are some details on the case I have, I have the mesh top:

And here are a couple of pics of it from when it was almost assembled and when it was first started up.
As you can see, I have the radiator mounted on the right, the 2 120mm fans are sucking air from outside and blowing into the case and a 120mm on the left that is sucking out.
Now I found that the vreg heatsinks on the mobo were quite toasty so I want to get the best airflow setup. I got a desk fan and put it on top of the case blowing down and that helped quite a bit. I can mount a 200mm fan on the mesh top so that it could blow down, but I am not sure what I should do to the other fans, should I change the orientation of the radiator fans so that they blow out instead of into the case?
All suggestions greatly appreciated.
