No.

You need to have a low profile heatsink for the Sugo SG01 and it cannot exceed 78MM in height.

The standard cooler for the Core i3 530 is quite short so it may fit.

I would also get the components separately too instead of the bundle!

You could get the following bits for the same price as the bundle:

Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H ~ £85

4GB 1600MHZ DDR3 ~ £77

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-041-GS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1517

Core i5-661 ~ £151

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-313-IN&groupid=701&catid=6&subcat=1672

A quad core Core i5 750 is the same price though!!

I assume you are going for the Core i3 dual cores due to the integrated graphics.

You could save yourself £53 and overclock a Core i3 530 yourself.
