Upgrading my box from AMD X2 4400 to an Intel processor. I will be using some existing hardware. I am on the fence between processor and cooling device. Looking at the Tuniq tower vs Ultra 120. Leaning towards Tuniq because it already comes with a fan and it looks better!? I am trying to keep the cost of the upgrade low. The rig will be for gaming and would like to overclock at least over 3 GHz. Below is a list of what existing hardware I have that will be used in the build. Would like any feedback or comments. Thanks!:)

Existing hardware
P180 case
Antec TruePower 550 power supply
BFG 7800 GTX 256 MB
Creative Soundblaster X-Fi
Crucial Ballistix 2GB DDR2 800 (already purchased)


New hardware purchasing
Abit IP35 Pro
Intel E6550 or E6750
Tuniq tower or Thermalright Ultra Extreme
