I'm looking for a few, small suggestions on choosing parts for my ongoing lga775-based retro gaming build of sorts. Won't go too in depth though, but it's going good.

So here's what I need suggested:
1. A good 750W (or higher) power supply that has 4x 6-pin PCI-e connectors? Best I could find so far is ones that only have 2x.
2. A good cooler for lga775 that'll be going on an overclocked Core 2 Extreme. I'm looking for something that looks powerful like this (Assassin III), but I'm happy to go with liquid cooling (AIO) if it's better, era specificness won't bother me.
3. Some sort of USB3 card that allows me to plug in the case's internal USB3 header, as the motherboard doesn't have it.

And any other tips for a build like this? I'm going maxed out with the top of 8GB that my board takes, and I'm going to be using two 9800GTX's in SLI. The build is over the top probably but I already owned half of these bits so I'm just doing it for fun now, but I'd like it to still be a capable machine that one day I might sell or something. Any improvements would be appreciated and I don't care about price too much, but not over the top.

Budget for the 3 parts listed above is about $300-350 AUD total.

Thanks.

The Zalman CNPS9500/CNPS9700 was an iconic cooler back in the day. Would be neat to keep that period correctness

EVGA G5 750W = $90 has 6 - 6+2 pin PCIe connectors.

Internal PCIe x1 USB3 card = $20
That's a real nice cooler, I'll definitely try get my hands on one. Thanks for the advice.

What is your case?
You will need good front air intake capabilities.
I like the cooler you listed.
A similar unit from noctua is the NH-D15 black:

For a 750w psu, how about a seasonic focus 750 gold?

I'm planning on using a Thermaltake Versa H25 as it's rather cheap (about $60 in my currency) though I haven't decided yet. Postage from places like Newegg really kills the deals they have. I'll take a look at both of those though.
