Hello. At first sorry for my english, its not perfect - not my main language

I gave a new live to very very old NZXT PC case (some more paintjob needs to be done).
I need help/sugestion because I dont know how to set side panel fan, intake or exhaus ? Normally I'd go for intake but the thing is I bought EVGA GTX 770 SC and this card is exhausting 80% of hot air inside the case instead of exhausting it from the back of the case. gtx770 hot air is exhausted DIRECTLY to the fan so if I set the side fan as intake it will be pushing hot air back to the card right ? Should I go for exhaust ? Side fan is scythe slim 1600 rpm. Please help.
