Just realized I messed up my PC Cooling Configuration.

So I have a S340 case with a h100i. The S340 comes with 2 fans, one on the rear and one on the top. Now I have my h100i mounted on the front exhausting air.

Now I just realized, that my rear and top fan are also exhausting, so all fans in my PC are exhausting.. LOL.

If I flip my rear and top fan to pull, will it be a better setup? ( not my pic )

This is what it would look like after flipping

Have the H100i intake, and the other two exhaust.
With your proposed layout you would be trying to work against natural convection, and you would also raise processor temps.

So flip the fans on the front?

That would probably be best.
The internal temps of the case would be slightly warmer, but that is typically better than having the processor intake hot air from the GPU.

Okay I'll go try that, currently in this setup my CPU idles at 40-50c, which is hot as fuck.

Anyway, brb I'll let you know what temps are the front fans flip on the radiator.

The 4790K correct? 40 Idle really isnt that bad.
Are you OCing?

Nope, I'm not ocing. Anyways, I just flipped the fans and it seems that the temps are a bit better but only by like 3-5c

So now it idles pretty much at 30-35c, I'll take that improvement and we'll call it a wrap I guess.
