So, Not much about my particular cabinet on the internet, hence coming to the community for some advice.

Official Link for Cabinet

Existing Air flow Config :

Intakes - 3 X 120mm front intake + 3 X 120mm bottom intake

Exhausts - 3 X 120mm top exhaust + 2 X 80mm rear exhaust.

Next to do - 360mm AIO and radiator for that goes on the side panel.

Now, as far as my understanding goes, we are supposed to not create negative pressure inside the cabinet, meaning Intake > Exhaust always.

I am wondering what to do in terms of the AIO Radiator config. I am quite hell bent on putting it in that side panel space, but intake or exhaust, push or pull, yada yada yada.
Really need advice from build enthusiasts over here.
Also, an advice on AIOs would be great, trying to keep it economical.


Setup Specs :

1. CPU - Intel i7-12700Kf
2. MOBO - MSI Pro B660-A ATX
3. GPU - Gigabyte Windforce GTX 1080 8GB OC edition
4. PSU - MSI MPG 750W Gold Plus
5. Ram - Corsair Vengeance 16GB X 2 DDR4 3200 MHz
6. Storage - 1 HDD @ 7200rpm, 1 Sata SSD, 1 NVMe SSD

The Cabinet is placed on top of the setup table, not on the floor. And there is enough clearance on all the sides/nothing is pushed right next to the cabinet.
 
I always go by.. top and rear exhaust, front and bottom intakes. In this, radiator is anyways taking place of top exhaust.

No no, I think there is slight confusion. There will be top exhaust with 3 X 120mm fans.

It is about 3 Extra fans put with a 360mm radiator on the side.

Am I getting confused, or confusing you even more here?
