So I have a problem of sorts, or at the very least a question, what would be the best config for the airflow for a case?
Here is mine, and could you let me know if you find anything wrong with it?

PS Yes, I know its dusty, that's why I was taking it apart in the first place, school was keeping me too busy to do much with it

i would have both top fans blowing upwards (out). everything else looks ok.

oh, ok thanks! The only reason I had it going downwards was to cool off the RAM, but then realized, it may be sucking in the hot air from the one next to it. Thanks again!

your cpu fan should be pulling air past the ram, that should be sufficient.

Yeah that's a very good configuration and that's how most people run their builds. Intake at the front at the bottom because no hot hair is around that area. That front fan supplies the PSU with nice cold air and the GPU as well. And the two fans at the top and back end will exhaust the rising upwards hot air and pulls it away from the cpu and gpu.
