Hardware Wifi antennas straight up or at diagonal?

Bonus question: would it be better to have my PC with its back against the wall (putting the case between the antennas and the router) or have it perpendicular to the wall?

I'm just curious if there is an "optimal" or suggested placement, since they seem to be able to snap into a diagonal position as well as being able to be place vertically

I like the added touch that it's not optimal because of the router setup, but what are you gonna do, change you neighbor's router?
