Hello! I organize an airflow in the odd pc case.
I drew a scheme for you.

Only four fans in the system:
CPU fan
PSU fan
GPU fan
and back case fan.
Sides of the case have no holes at all, only perforated segment near HDDs but it covered with plastic case layer.
[DON'T DO THIS AT HOME]
I started up the pc and took lighter to test airflow with flame.
[/DON'T DO THIS AT HOME]
And doing so I saw air sucked in through the front holes and blown away from psu in very active pace, but back case exhausting fan seemed to have no clear blowing. Flame didn't bend away from the fan as it did with psu exhaustion radiator or (bent in) front holes, but shaked much in really random manner.
I'm unsure what to do. May be set the fan to pull in instead? But there is CPU fan right behind blowing heat away.
Seems like psu fan sucks so much (in a good way =p) that it pulls the air in opposite direction through rotating back case fan.
Or may be there are other reasons. Need your advice!
