I ordered the retail model. Do need a globalwin or alpha to cool it if I plan to attempt to overclock to 900mhz?

An Alpha and Arctic Silver are a necessity for OC'd Durons. Some Durons won't even boot UN-OC'd without them. YStech "27" cfm CPU fan, too. At minimum. SBT.

It's NOT necessarily necessary (mm). Try it with standard sink and if it doesn't work then shell out your bucks. Only get worried if you approach temps of 70C.
