about cpu cooler, the cooler master hyper 212+ should be good.

about psu, you can consider the used cooler master real power pro 550w here, its cheap. brows.gif

about the casing, if you don't want to change, you have to modify abit,
since old skol casing has bad air flow.
so you find the way to let it has good air flow. biggrin.gif

another pentium D user here. would like to OC for better performance. same case here stock cooler cap ayam psu and even old casing. LOL

is it a right move to OC it?
*
haha, you can try, make sure it is stable overclock and temperature don't exceed the limit.
but old motherboard usually don't have heatsink on the mosfet of the voltage regulator circuit,
so it is not meant for overclock.
and cap ayam psu have higher noise, don't know will cause stability issue or not when overclock. unsure.gif
