Thanx Hillbilly,I was thinking of doing that,but Corsair(The cpu cooler) said it's better for their cooler H60 to get cool air in from out side the case,so that prevented me from doing it,so I decided to rather ask for advice.

I have the fan on my H50 radiator exhausting to the back. CPU temp sits around 34C~40C
So you should be fine doing that too.
On my box, the two top fans are exhausting. Intaking are the two fronts. Side and bottom fans are not connect.
Temps only go up when I remove the side panel, and theres no more airflow through the case. Thats expected.
Wish list:
Does not include monitors.
Does not include sufficient cooling for the bad boy.
Does not include case.
If I were you, I wouldn't go for that CPU... That's the first generation i7, where Intel have already released a few CPU's better (and cheaper if I'm not mistaken) than that. Have a look here for some comparisons.
Funny... I was reading that article just yesterday, didn't think it would come in handy quite so soon... :)
Did an upgrade on my file server on Thursday:)
