I am thinking of getting this card. However, in order to be able to install the radiator, I would have to replace two Intake fans with the Exhaust fans of this card, and would then actually only have Exhaust fans. How have other buyers of this card - most of whom probably also have an AIO cooler for the CPU - solved this problem? I have a very large case, but it will probably be difficult to install enough Intake fans for four AIO Exhaust fans. Ideas?

Helpful answer

2 possibilities:
1. unscrew the fans and turn them over quickly. Time required: 5 min.
2. you have a big case, why not just install more. And an "only" exhaust case is not so bad, it just gives more dust. There is no vacuum, don't worry :D

So I installed it in my case as a push configuration at the front of the case and the CPU cooling also at the lid of the case (but directed in such a way that it pushes out of the case), and since I still had room for two fans, I installed a fan above the GPU radiator (without getting in the way of the radiator) and one at the end of the case. This way I have the airflow in one direction.
