    Blowing in, it'll hit the airflow from the front fan and they'll both pass out the back and it'll be better

    Pure Awesomeness!
    I got mine on the side blowing in by default, plus if you think about it, blowing in is better since its blowing almost directly to the CPU providing cool air.

    IF you do make it blow in you need another one to blow out unless the one you have blowing out moves enough air from the two fans blowing in. If you have fans blowing in and one fan trying to blow the air out from the two fans, it will increase air pressure inside the case causing the case to easily heat up. But if you have more air being pushed out than in then your case wont easily heat up. So it would be better to either get another fan or get a fan that moves a little more air than the other two fans.

    seems blowing in on side is better so far, was 36c/33c/30c/30c/ with blowing out, is now 29c/30c/29c/29c/ blowing in,need to test under load.

    I had this set up before, the largest issue you'll have is dust, obviously, If you can attach some sort of makeshift foam filter on the fan then I'd say go for it. But a filter will reduce your airflow but keep you pc clean. Your choice.

    Yeah I take my pc out every single month and use an air compressor to dust it
