[Reupload - Misspelled title] How bad is it to have more intake than exhaust?
Post Body

Title may seem weird but let me explain:

I'm working on my first build and I decided on the case (Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh) that comes with 3 RGB front fans as intake. I also want an 360mm RGB AIO (Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360R RGB) that i'll mount to the top as exhaust. And because I am the way I am, and don't want the build to look a little incomplete, I'm gonna buy one more RGB fan to mount on the back of the case as exhaust. My only concern is that I'm not sure what affect have more exhaust than intake will have on overall thermals and performance, if any at all.

Also another consideration could be to mount the back fan as intake and just have 3 exhaust on the top... which again, I'm not sure how it will affect thermals and performance, if any at all.

Would anyone have any insight on this or links to a deep-dive video on the effects of this? Similar to GamerNexus' style of video.

Here is the rest of the build in I'm missing any details (I'm aware a 360mm AIO is overkill for a 3600x xD):
