NZXT x72 with i7 8700k

[clyde777]

I ordered an nzxt x72 360mm radiator to replace my noctua u14s dual fan to help cool my i7 8700k for overclocking and its going in an nzxt h700 case. My question is if I have 3 120mm intake fans in the front and the nzxt 360 aio on the top with one extra exhaust fan in the back will that cause any issues with negative airflow? I have an rtx 2080ti that gets very hot so I was wanting to try to cut a few degrees off of that while still keeping the i7 8700k cool.

You can try it. It sounds like a good setup.

I have my X62 on the front and added 2x 140mm on top of my Phanteks Enthoo Pro M (and 1x 140mm rear exhaust) and my GPU temps were surprising low after adding the two top fans. So, what I'm getting at is you can try it like you aren't satisfied you can always put the radiator in the front and swap the other fans.

I like the idea of the radiator on top, it's just that mine covered up my motherboard too much and I didn't' like that.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from clyde777 : "NZXT 360 radiator question"

I have a nzxt h700 with 3 intake fans in the front and one exhaust fan in the back. as of right now I have positive air pressure if I add the 360 rad on top as exhaust will that create negative air pressure? My goal is to still keep my i7 8700k cool while reducing my rtx 2080ti temps.

Unfortunately it goes one of two ways, you either mount to front and push hot air into case effectively raising gpu temps or mount top and take heat from gpu reducing cooling potential of cpu.
How bad it gets either which way depends.

Here's a video doing some tests on this.
