I have build my first pc about 2 weeks ago. I have been running idle at 34C
I was wondering if this is an average temp for idle.
Also i am running a corsair h80i cooler 2 fans and 4 case fans.

What is your ambient temperature? Idle tempes should be no more than 10ºC above ambient temperature, so if your ambient temperature is 22ºC, then there may be an issue but if ambient temperature is say 30ºC, then you're fine. Idle temperature is not a good way to measure cooling performance as temperature sensors are relatively inaccurate at low temperatures compared to high temps. Stress test your CPU for 10 minutes at 100% load using Prime95 v26.6 small FFT's. Your average temperature over these 10 minutes should be less than 65ºC or 43ºC above ambient temperature.

relax dont rush into dictionary zone look every hardware has its own normal to high temp range see the list below
cpu 30- 50 C* while working 30-70 C* while gaming
gpu 30-50 C* while editing 30 C* - 65 C* while gaming
hard disk 25 C* - 48 C*
