You need DDR2 ram, you can't use DDR ram with Core 2 Duo.

Also, I don't know if that Zalman fan will fit in that case.

Yeah I highly doubt the Zalman CNPS9500 will fit in a micro case.

As for ram I would get these and you can't go wrong with D9 chips: http://shop3.outpost.com/product/5162136

Yes indeed, you will not be able fit a 9500 in the case you listed. You will limited to water cooling, Zalman 8000 or something similar in size due to the constraints of the case.

Drop the power supply you listed as you will not need SLI. Save yourself some cash and go with something like the one below.

If you have a mind to overclock, wait a week or two for the new motherboard listed below to be tested by the hardcore as there are no real outstanding C2D micro-motherboards out in the marketplace currently.

The RAM werty listed or the ones below should serve you well.
