General Advice on compatability

Hi Already have :

Corsair TX650w PSU
OCZ 4 GB PC@6400

want antec 300. non negotiable. i think all other antec cases look rubbish, and this one just looks damn good, fashion over function
Asus P5Q Pro Intel P45 - want this
Want e8400, not interested in quad core
want ice 4850
not interested in crossfire either

need advice on cpu cooler.. want to hit 3.6, and what fits on this mobo, with ease.
need advice on distances of power cablining on that mobo + case + PSU combo
need to know if this ram is supported with this mobo as ive heard it could be funky.
need to know if its 3 or 4 pin for fans on this mobo

how many extra case fans do I need?

There shouldnt be a problem with the ram.!

nice case, and cpu, i would go with this cooler..

and im sure its a 4pin fan header
