first off what is your budget?
Secondly do not use that case! It is Terrible. Some of the poorest build quality I have ever seen.
Any particular reason you are getting an Nvidia chipset? Unless you are planning on going sli a p45 will be much better.
This is what I recommend you get

Stick with the q6600 or alternatively get an e8400. I don't know what you will be using your pc for but both of those should suit you fine if you multitask heavily I recommend a q9450 or q9550 but you will have to spend quite a bit more.
if that comes out above budget you can always get a 9800gt.

Some games do not scale well with sli, but if you already have an 8800gt why not get another one. Though if you can sell your current one and with the money you save on the non sli motherboard you can maybe a a hd4870 or nvidia gtx260 core 216 which outperforms 8800t sli but quite a bit, but it's up to you in the end. the case I recommended is really very good and will suit your needs perfectly.

Great. I just hope you noticed the case I suggested doesn't come with a power supply like the one you originally wanted but if you have a look at my build I recommended a really solid one that doesn't cost too much. I also hope you have a 64bit OS because a 32bit one can't detect more than 4gb( 3.5 is usually max depending on what other hardware you have installed)

Yeah they all should work. there might be some compatibility issues but not many....why don't you get vista home premium 64bit with all that ram it will run fine
