Hello, first post but i've been reading these forums for a long while now..

Anyway as the title says i have a Corsair 750D, MSI GTX 780Ti and a 3770k.. only problem is i have a crappy motherboard and the GPU is quite close to the CPU cooler and tubing (H100i) And im just wondering what is the best fan config for my system, i have x2 140mm fans in the front (intake of course) x2 at the bottom (...Intake) x1 at the rear (Exhaust) and x2 on the H100i rad (exhaust) I was thinking of changing the fan config of the rad to be an intake.. but whats the point hot air rises right? And the tubing is too short for the rad to be at the bottom. I want my CPU and GPU to be as cool as possible, please help! Thanks, Pat :)

I'd keep it as is. The general rule is bottom/font/side are intake, top/back are exhaust. Also, pulling in hot air from the rad would affect your graphics card's temps (to what extent is the question; probably minimally), and pulling from the top would disrupt the airflow of your case.
