Get the sunbeam core contact freezer, it comes with a very good thermal paste, thats better than urs. And do you want a graphics card? You picked a Mobo with SLi..

Get a 4870 rather then a 9800gtx or if you want to keep with the nvidia theme get an EVGA 260 216
Get a E8400 not quad as the C2D will be faster for most games
You also need a operating system

Actually an HD 4850 would be the best buy. For the price you really can't beat it's performance. A 4850 can beat a 9800GTX+ in most games.
Although the Q6600 is a good entry level quad, but they don't overclock as well as they used to, due to the higher VID. Like Salty said, your better off getting a E8500 or E8400. Both would overclock very well and would be better for gaming.
Edit: Ha, Puddle beat me to it.

I am glad you agree with my obvious genius  lol If you want to go quad get a modern one like the Q9300 the Q6600 is only really a gimmick to get quad core the the newer ones are around 25% faster and E8400 would be best if your not a SERIOUS multitasker
