I have a AMD Phnom x4 955BE currently over clocked at 3.5 on a AsRock 970 Extreme4 with a stock AMD heatsink. I bought a H60 and was wonder weither I should set fans up as intake or exhaust? I have two 80mm fans in front and one 80mm fan on side as intake and one top 80mm and a rear 120mm as exhaust. The fan from the H60 has to go in the back for that is my only 120mm slot but which fans should I have as my intakes and which ones as my exhaust?

As das_stig said. Your H60 gets better cooling as intake but the difference over exhaust is 1 or 2 degrees. With your limited top 80mm fan it would make no sense to have your rear fan as intake.
