80C is waayyy too hot for an FX CPU. Because the thermal sensors are further away from heat producing components in the FX series, they need to be kept at a lower reported temperature. An FX CPU will throttle at about 65C core and 55C CPU.

For a 700MHz overclock, I would recommend the Noctua NH D15.

The Lucifer is a huge cooler and may cause RAM clearance issues. And to be honest, the Reeven model OP suggested and the Phanteks model Karadjgne suggested both don't list a recommended TDP.

However, it seems that the Phanteks model is has more surface area and would likely do a better job.
