Fan air flow direction

Is this correct? Front fan blowing to back, side blowing in to cpu and rear blowing out of computer

It doesn't really matter a whole lot... you want a lot of air moving out of the case. We find that all fans moving air out of the case is the wisest move... the air blowing on the cpu from afar has almost no effect.
