Buying a Q6600 will be enough. A good cooling system and it will be overclock-able to 3.5 GHz without trouble.

750W PSU is overkill. Seek a less powerful but maybe fanless PSU. I always say that silence is really enjoyable to work comfortably.

For the very same reason, don't buy cheap case. I don't know the one you planned, maybe it's already fine. I use an Antec P182 only for that reason.

I don't know prices in USA, but I can check for your package in euros with prices available in France. Let me know if it may be useful to you.
