I completed selecting the parts. What are your thoughts? Also, what do you think about choosing an exhaust fan?
Hello! I recently shared a build I'm working on for a friend, and after more research, I feel confident about the components I've chosen.
As mentioned before, the GPU is causing a bottleneck, but it's expected to be upgraded soon, so please ignore that concern.
Right now, everything fits within my budget, and what I'm seeking is to confirm there aren't any obvious issues.
Also, any advice on setting up an exhaust fan at the back would be appreciated. With four fans in the case and three with the AIO radiator, I'm curious about the best setup. Would exhaust through the top or radiator work? The Lian Li Lancool 207 page suggests it.
To recap: Should I add another fan at the back? If so, what would be a good option that's affordable?
Thanks a lot!

Just a quick note, you might want to reference your earlier discussion in this thread so newcomers can catch up. I’d keep the rear fan slot open and check how things look with the front 140mm fans running for intake and the AIO at the top for exhaust. The lower four fans should be directed to intake air from where the PSU was usually placed. If you believe temperatures could get better, consider adding a 120mm fan at the back and observe the results. On your setup, if I were you, I’d include a small capacity SSD for the OS, apps, and launcher. The big SSD on your list can act as a games library without needing a partition.
Just a quick note for you: the GPU in your list seems a bit too expensive. There are cheaper alternatives available, and a 50 series model is on the way, so you might want to consider skipping a GPU altogether. You can also find RAM at a lower cost. Regarding the extra fan, I don’t think it’s needed.
