Depends on the case and what you have inside.

I'd put the 120 as an exhaust and use one 80 as a front intake and the other as a side intake.

It helps to have a front fan and rear cuz it circulates the air. A side intake cools the GPU and motherboard down but doesn't really encourage the air to go towards the exhaust.

If you are buying fans then sure a front and rear 120 is fine. But maybe throw in an extra side fan.
