Go with a top blowhole, I think that is your best option.

how about the bottom intake... it seems to me as though your graphics card isn't getting airflow, also if you want try to keep all your other cards as faraway from the graphics card as possible.

If you want to stay wit your current case. I would install the fan at the bottom of the case (intake) and the one at the top of the case (exhaust). However I would opt for a 92mm or 120mm fan to do this.

cheers....and be happy not mad !

Top blowhole or 120mm side intake are good upgrades.

A 120mm in the front, if you have the room.
Perhaps a 92mm over the CPU in the side cover.
The 2x80s in the rear are good and if you have room for 92 there go for it, with atleast 2x80s in the rear the blow hole won't be absolutely necessary
