upgrades for an ok computer

[the last resort]

ok. so here it goes. I have right now a 6000+ in an M2N-SLI deluxe mobo, with 2GB corsair ram. The 6000+ is using the stock cooler. I am also running a 7600 GT (I know, but it was cheap) and a rosewill power supply.
Here's what I want to do: I want to get a new cooler for the 6000+. Im thinking the Scythe.

I also want to get a new video card, and I was thinking the 4850 with the aftermarket cooler, since I want my comp to be quiet. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127370

And since I'm getting a new video card, I have decided to get a good PSU this time around, so I'm planning on picking up a Corsair and making it a modular. So this is the one i found: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139002

And while I'm at it, I'm also going to pick up 3 fans, which move a good amount of air and are also quiet, so 3x: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185058

And since I'm also using a notebook mouse for my computer right now, I'm going to get a good wired mouse that wont explode batteries like my previous Microsoft. I found the Razer to be quite attractive. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153019

And since I'm going to be replacing the CPU heatsink, I will be including a tube of AS5.

Any comments/suggestions are welcomed, and are greatly appreciated.

The stock AM2 heatsink is one the best (AVC Z7U7414001 (stock AM2)):

If you want a better cooler, I would refer to this chart.

that all looks good to me! I have a logitech g5 mouse that i've gotten pretty use to. However, after buying it I would've rather tried the Razor mouse instead.

I just bought a microsoft mouse for my laptop and I've found it almost too small for my hands. The G5 is plenty big enough for me, so you should also consider size.
I believe the G5 is more of a palm based mouse where it sits inside your palm and the razor is more of a finger based mouse where your palm hovers above the mouse

It all depends on what you like. Go to a local pc shop or best buy to test mice. That way you can get a better feel for what you really want.

That's just my 2cents worth

The mx518 is only $40 over at newegg. You can't beat $40 for an 8 button optical mouse with 1600 dpi and on-the-fly sensitivity adjustment. For that price you almost have to buy it.
