How does this sound?

I've pretty much made up my mind that I'm going with an Athlon 64 3000+ with a MSI Neo2 board and I'm gonna try for 2.5 ghz on air. Just a couple questions: what would you recommend for the HSF? And do you think I will be able to re-use my current 512+256 Corsair XMS PC3200 memory? Thanks.

youll definitely be able to use that ram while you overclock

Thermalright XP-90 with a panaflo

Yes you will be able to use that ram

OK sweet, that will save me a lot of money. One more question: to run dual-channel do both sticks have to be the same size? I have 512 + 256.

Yes.
