I'm just curious as to what the best option would be to set up the ins/outs of the fans in my 800D.

I will be using the h100i to cool an i7-4770k. GPU is going to be EVGA GTX 780 w/ ACX.

How should I set up the ins/outs of the case? Thanks in advance!
 
Solution
I would recommend putting the H100i on the top-rear of the case, add an extra AF 120mm High performance on the top if you want the extra cooling performance (not a lot). Let the GPU cool itself, as the GPU sucks air in from the back of the case and blows it out into the case.

Ok, I could do that. I take it the extra 120mm would have nothing to do with the rad and just be extra air flow? And how should everything be placed, intake or exhaust?
 
I personally think the rear fan should be left blank, I think it would create too much directions for the air to go. I prefer, just front and bottom intake with only top as exhaust, the rear would be left blank. In addition, positive pressure with more intake fans than exhaust for reduction of dust. Just my opinion.
