I've set up my PC with three intake fans installed on the very top, and one exhaust fan in the back. Is this a bad configuration for cooling? What would be the recommended setup for fan placement?

You might want to reconsider that setup. Ideally, it’s better to have the top fans act as exhausts to blow the hot air out, while having the cooler air drawn in from the bottom and front. This way, you make sure fresh air is getting to your components.
Totally agree! Hot air rises, so it makes sense to use those top fans for exhaust to keep airflow moving smoothly.
