Already have Optical drive and hard drive, need suggestions for CPU Cooler, MOBO, and Video Card.

Looking for a very good cooler for the quad core for overclocking. Tuniq Tower, Ultima 90, Zalman CNPS9500? Looking to spend around $50

Motherboard looking to spend about $100-120, excellent for overclocking, One (or two) IDE connectors (Still have IDE HD/S and DVD Burner) Two would be optimal. Preferably 3 or so PCI Slots. Suggest good boards and I will sift through for the best that matches what i need.

And the video card, i'm looking to spend around $120. XFX 8600GT? Also looking for something that will overclock pretty well and/or has good stock clock speed.

Thanks guys, looking to orders these asap as the rest of my parts will be arriving mid-week next week :-D
