ok this is how i have it now im just worried that its wrong so can some one tell me what is the best way to put them thanks in advance fo the help
How should i put my fans

Front intake, rear exhaust; anything else is extra, just don't inadvertently create a lot of turbulence inside the case - smooth airflow is ideal. You shouldn't have any issue with that setup, though I personally would not have a side intake - been there/tried that and only noticed 1*C drop in cpu temp (and a lot of extra noise).
Edit: Also...be careful with a floor intake fan; you should *really* have a filter on that one as the potential for sucking up dust, hair, crumbs of food, etc. is fairly high.

I agree a floor intake must have a dust filter....
About the side intake, i got my 80mm fan (opposite my CPU) with the cone/tunnel (included in a stock case) and it has dropped my temperatures about 5 - 10 degrees ( I moved my CPU and my paste cracked, and so my temps are around 35* now, where as before they were the same as it says in my sig...) And that is with a stock cooler...
About the noice issue, i took two small elastics from when i had braces (they are perfect size...), and I put those between the fan and case. I hear absolutely no noise...
