I have 3 intake fans. I’m getting a fan hub today, so tell me if this would work out: using liquid cooling as an exhaust INTAKE fan, and adding 2 exhaust fans to the top of the case

It really depends on what component is being cooled by that radiator and what you do with the pc. If it's just CPU for gaming, i'd rather have the rad as intake, that way you are not putting hot air from the GPU into the rad. If it's CPU cooling for CPU intensive work, and not much GPU, have it as exhaust that way you are not heating up the inside of your case. Now if it's both CPU ans GPU on the same rad, I would usually want it as exhaust, in parallel to good intake setup, that way your ram and MB chipsets have cool airflow.
