You want a new motherboard, processor, video card, AND memory. The old memory will be too slow for the new system, and it will be a severe bottleneck.
Everything should be standard (just make sure you have enough slots for everything) with the possible exception of the cooling parts. Is the video cooler (I assume a fan) on a PCI slot? Or is it connected directly to the video card? You might not need a cooling system, depending on what the card you get comes with.
And the heatsink will most likely not work with a new processor/motherboard. You'll have to get a new one. I'm a big fan of Thermaltake, but there are others out there.
