Getting New Side Panel and Have a Question

Okay,
I can't stand it anymore and I purchased some blue cathodes and a replacement side panel for my Centurion 534 case that will come with a view window on it. The stock panel looks like this:

This case came with no front intake fan which I installed based on opinions from this forum. (Thanks by the way!) I also added an intake fan beneath the wind funnel blowing onto my CPU.

My question is this, if I replace the 120mm fan with an 80mm on the new panel, how much will that affect the air movement in my case? I will obviously have to make the holes and mount the fans in my new view window panel and I'd rather use an 80mm as opposed to using a 120mm fan. My setup would be this: 80mm fan in front of case, 80mm fan blowing onto CPU, 80mm fan where the 120mm fan used to be and 120mm exhaust fan in rear. Any and all comments or suggestions welcomed here. Thanks so much.
