nice nice and nice thats rather a lot of such a small space, normally i would say to put the top fans as exhaust but then you'll have negative case pressure.

love the look of them fans

Indeed, plus i am all about astetics and i love the look of it with the fans facing up, but as i see it, intake from the front and top, blowing though the rads and over all of the components, and out of the back/bottom

Indeed, its strange but the reason ive done it, is it gives the impression that the insides are actually smaller, the fact that i had next to no room to work with is irrelevant

problem is heat raises which means you're going against the natural air flow but not really much you can do about it and temps are good.

yeah them fans are pretty ^_^

These fans are pretty powerful so i have no issues with that, plus my rads are actually cold to the touch, these ek rads are the dogs doo dars!

getting roughly 25 idol and about 30-32 on max load

Very clean, and amazing that you are able to squeeze all that into such a small case.

This reminds me of all the old Prodigy builds I used to see, really like the ITX builds we see now because they're always so creative and compact .
