I have an NZXT H700 in wich i will mount a 360mm aio, i was planning on putting it in the front and putting rgb fans in the top and back. Usually top and back are for exhaust and front for intake, this would mean i will have 3 intake fans with a radiator restricting airflow and 4 exhaust fans. Would this setup work or should i do it differently?

PC Parts:

Intel core I7 9700k

Zotac gtx1080 amp xtreme

Gigabyte Aorus Z390 ultra

Nzxt kraken x72

2x8gb ddr4 3200 mhz

Samsung 970evo+ 500gb

Enermax maxtytan 800W titanium

Personally I would use the aio for exhaust.

I thought of that as well, but i saw some benchmarks saying there was a significant difference in temperature since you blow warm air through the radiator

True,  but otherwise youre blowing warm air into the case which could have negative effect on other components temps. 

 

I havent seen the benchmarks myself, but I would still suggest using it as exhaust. Perhaps top mounted(if possible in your case)
