I have 2 fans at the front, 1 at the back and 1 on the bottom. (there are no other fan slots and the one on the bottom is only placed as the PSU slightly covers the screw holes).
The only place I could really put is the back would this be ok, I was thinking the other parts might overheat if I remove the back fan?

Would I have it drawing cold air from the back?

Thanks

So the fan draws in hot air from inside the case and cools it down and puts in in the water cooling loop?

The case air will be probably be warmer than the intake air. You will be blowing warm case air over the cooler but unless your case is really warm or you are doing insane overclocks locating the cooler on the back of the case will not cse any issues. I know of, me being one, quite a few people have their AIO setup as exhaust due to case limitations.
