With a expensive cooler and motherboard like that i would be looking at a minimum for the FX 6300.If you can't afford it buy a less expensive cooler and still get it.Talking about this makes me wonder whether the noctua even would fit in your "crappy old 1995" case.
There are coolers that will perform about as good or at least good enough and will cost less.

Are you aiming for crossfire? Otherwise get a decent and less expensive psu and put the money to a better gpu or case.

I don't know where you live (country=prices) and what your budget is,but look at something like the next and see if it is on par with your build when it comes to price,
