you mean on the case panel right? If you were talking a hole on the back of your case below PSU outlet i would say bad plan lol. But window fan right in front of the CPU is always a good spot. That or right in front of your AGP/PCI slots to help cool off your vid card if it gets hot. Then again RAM if you have it overclocked enough to where it gets hot. Just see which gets the hottest...and install it there. Or better yet make 3 holes!! lmao.
 
i just added a 80mm intake fan pointing at the hsf. low cfm, i think about 20. it doesn't do much at idle, but under load, it helps..
 
The top of the case is a very good place to put an exhaust fan because hot air rises, etc etc. I would recommend putting one there because then the same hot air wont be going through the cpu fan over and over again.
