It would match but why?

Not sure if he meant using them for the rad but yeah^

 

Small changes like different fans can make me go nuts.

Does the H80i support 140mm or just 120mm it seems like just 120mm from what I'm reading.

Looks like I may be getting the H80i and replace the fans with two 120mm setup in a push push exhaust factor.

Don't use those fans for the rad. They aren't good for rads.

Just 120mm. I do recommend getting better fans:

Static Pressure fans are best I'm guessing.

I'll grab a pair of the Gelid Solution when I get the cooler.

Those fans are designed for cases not radiators. They will do a very poor job.

 

Two of these Gelid 120mm fans that WoodenMaker suggested.

Now besides cooling.

Which do you prefer/suggest? The AMD or Intel build, why?

Up to you. One's cheaper and the other has a more fitting mobo.
