I personally have a rear exhaust on mine cause I had an extra fan. You don't really need it all that much these days, especially with the coolers that 4090 comes with and 7800X3D running fairly chill and you already having 6 fans in the case with 3 of them being exhaust. But it wouldn't hurt.

On a side note, I actually have the exact same AIO and I'd suggest going into the settings and adjusting the pump speed to 70-80%. I read reviews in the past and if I remember correctly, they said there's basically little to no difference in AIO cooling performance once you go above 70% but the noise difference is big. Trust me on that cause the noise the pump makes at 100% is very annoying and distracting.

Damn, thanks for the tip! I've actually never installed one before and have zero experience. The 7800X3D looks like a surprisingly cool-running chip, it's quite impressive. As it turns out, my biggest issue so far is fitting my desk into my car! I couldn't fit it into my Peugeot 208, I'm taking the car at work on friday to pick it up instead. I even managed to get a sweet deal on the desk, they gave me an expired campaign price and about 25% off. All in all, I think I've saved at almost 1000$ on the complete shopping spree.
