It's more of a carry over from my current build than me getting a new one loll. If you add fans to the right side of the case, there are vents on the side which can allow air in and give a pretty good air flow according to GN.

It's a surprisingly good case for both Air and AIO as long as you add some fans to the side.

An odd design for sure, but it does get me thinking on it's airflow direction. I take it primary air will be passed in via the right side panel, with some air from the bottom pushing any hot air within the case towards the fans at the top, meaning the fans on the right/bottom are the ones cooling the mobo/GPU/CPU. I imagine the exhaust fan at the back will be outtake air as well?. 

It's basically like this:

You have the side panel fans flowing fresh air inside the case. You will have the CPU cooler and maybe even an exhaust fan that can be placed to the back of the case push the hot air out. You can also put fans at the bottom to cool your gpus but as far as I can tell, you don't need to based on GNs testing since the bottom side fan is good enough.
