I recently purchased the fractal design define xl R2, 5 Noctua NF-A14 PWM 140mm fans and for the CPU, Corsair Hydro Series H110 280mm. For this particular case I came up with this cooling configuration but I would like to know your ideas about it.

On the top of the case:
Installing the radiator in pull configuration, fans being on the top of the radiator (easier to clean dust on the radiator).

Rear fan:
Installing it as intake fan to provide fresh air to the radiator.

Front fans:
Using them as an intake fan so that the radiator and components inside the case gets cool air.

Bottom fan:
It's optional.....If there is more hot air inside the case, I could use it as intake.

What do you think?

If I flip the rear fan and use it as exhaust, should I use the bottom fan as intake? Is that alright or will there be to much intake and little exhaust?
