I have seen most people take the 200mm out from the front and move it to the top and replacing the front intake with 2 140mm fans. Would you recommend leaving it there and purchasing the same fan to exhaust from the top and leave the 200mm as front intake?

either would be an option
a 200mm should normally be quieter than 2 x 140mm though 2 x 140mm may move more air--depending on the actual fans used
so depends if you need to move more air

Its best to have the 200mm exhaust and install 2 140mm in the front. This will create positive pressure.
If you use a 200mm in the front and a 200mm in the top it will cause negative pressure if you also use a rear 140mm fan to exhaust.
140m,m fans will also give you a more focused air flow than a 200mm that will throw most of the air around the drive cage in stead of through it.

added 2 140mm white phanteks fans to the front. I was surprised at how high quality they were. Where the screws make contact there is a rubber coating to reduce vibrations. They are also super quiet, very satisfied with this case. My only gripe is the 200mm fan makes this clicking noise which I assume is the motor, I can live with it however I have excellent airflow.
