Purely Negative Air flow case. Your input/ideas?

So, i am currently thinking about designing a entirely negative air flow case.
on the back and front of the pc, will be 1 fan sucking air out.
On the side of the case, will be a series of air holes, where air will be sucked in directly over the vital areas, such as CPU, GPU, and RAM.
These air holes will be large enough to not put any stain on the 2 outputting Fans, and filtered.
What do you guys think about this new concept? Work? wouldn't work?
Any input at all is preferable to no input, even if its flaming.
Thanks all :]

Bottom to top is the more ideal air flow as hot air rises. I would vent from the top as well, then make a gap at the bottom to take in air. Negative Air Flow in theory works better then Positive Air Flow because it reduces the amount of particles in a given space which reduces heat. However, there may be other factors that make it not work in practice.
