H80i for a 5820K?

[Banzai_Joe]

Hi all,
quick question, good match or not?
Won't be overclocked.

Thanks

Should be fine if you are not overclocking it will be better than the stock cooler for sure and a lot quieter under load

thanks. And a numpty follow up question.........
without any extra case fans, whats the best config to have the H80i fans in?
Intake or exhaust?
i do have a spare 120mm that was on the back of the case that i can put onto the inside front if that will benefit?

exhaust - and yes put a fan on the front pulling in cool air.
