I have a Thermaltake Core V21 Case, 1x200mm fan and 3x120mm fans.
Here are the fan options available for the case

What would be the best way of placing the fans to keep the case and components cool?

I'd of gone with a better case but you're completely ignoring us when we suggest better builds anyway I don't see any point helping someone who doesn't want it.

I would use all fans as intakes. Make sure there is an opening for hot air to leave the case.

Here are the recommendations I have had:

And here is what I went with:

So am clearly not "completely ignoring" you, the case is really not that bad and it suits my needs and I am asking a question about fan placement - this case clearly isn't limiting in that area so stop getting petty and keep your unrelevant, and quite frankly not useful or helpful, comments to yourself. The build you recommended was also over budget, it may be only £20 but budgets exist for a reason.
