So, im upgrading to a Spec 03 case, i5-4690k z97 SLI krait with 8 more gigs of ram (getting it in a combo deal at newegg for 377$ USD w/o the case) I was wondering if i took the HDD cage, and 5.25 cages out and added 2x more fans (making 3x fans) it would bring in more air right?

So the big question,

If i screwed in 1x fan onto each fan on the front of the inside of the case making 6x intake fans all together, would that increase air flow or cause negative airflow?

To give an idea

6x intake
1x intake bottom
2x (maybe 3 if i can fit it) out take top
1x out take back

Now i know some will say "eww the noise"
Im gonna be buying the best PC fans you can for silence and airflow once i do my research.

And i've done my math i will have enough room for everything in my case.
Anyone got any ideas or commentary on if it will cause negative or positively better airflow?

All fans will most likely be 120mm noctua fans
 
for positive pressure (good one) you'll want more fans as intakes compared to exhausts. you have 7 in, 4 out so all good. you dont need the extra fans on front, 3 is enough.

so 3 front - intakes, 1 bottom - intake
2 top outs, 1 back out

beware, all intakes much have a dust mesh.
