First time builder 3 boxing

My husband has taken over my computer with his work meaning less time
for Wow, that cant do.. So I've taken some courage to build my own this
is what ive picked so far.
I would like to be able to play wow and maybe 3 multi box for a later date

CPU Q6600 ���i.com - �C���e�� Core 2 Quad Q6600 BOX ���i��r
MOTHERBOARD P5Q DELUXE ���i.com - ASUS P5Q Deluxe ���i��r
RAM4GB
DDR2 PC2-6400 2GB 2??���i.com
- UMAX Pulsar DCDDR2-4GB-800 (DDR2 PC2-6400 2GB 2���g) ���i��r
HDD500G
SATA300 7200 ���i.com - HGST
HDP725050GLA360 (500G SATA300 7200) ���i��r
CASE P180 ���i.com - ANTEC P180 ���i��r
PSU EarthWatts EA-650 ���i.com - ANTEC EarthWatts EA-650 ���i��r
VIDEOCARD
GF8800GT ���i.com - ���l�u��
GF8800GT-E512HW (PCIExp 512MB) ���i��r

Will that work? Will the cpu and the motherboard be ok together?

Another option i could take..
EN9600GT ���i.com - ASUS EN9600GT/HTDI/512M/R3 (PCIExp 512MB) ���i��r

I just want to play WOW and later in life have the stuff to upgrade if needed

Thanks for your time in looking into here
Money isnt a problem, but would like to keep some for my sons Wii :)

For 3 boxing its overkill :P

if yer gonna get vista I would suggest getting vista64 and 8 gigs of ram
If yer running XP it'll work just fine

Yer graphics card choice will have minimal impact on wow performance.

Cant tell if that comes with a cpu heatsink or not

8GB is great. But you do need a 64-bit OS for much over 3GB. XP or Vista as you prefer. Each has issues so...mostly preference. A cheap (~$100) SSD for the data files could be fun since you have a Q6600 and a lot of RAM already.

Really, I can run 3 sessions pretty much fine on an overclocked dual core with 4GB. But Q6600s are cheap, and if you have flexibility (and everything else is already good) the SSD is nice for high-access areas (cities, battlegrounds).

if the 3 boxing spec is overkill, can u suggest a cheap or not so powerful spec for us pls?

I wouldn't say is overkill, perhaps more then enough. I would suggest go with your current setup choice. Really recommend the windows 64 bit choice (and yes vista is fine). The 8GB as some suggest is overkill for 3 accounts.

See, if you ever decide to go with five accounts, you'll have a system that will support it. You can always add more RAM at a later time, if needed. A CPU or a graphics card you would have to replace ;-)

I dont know why everyone goes Intel when AMD is always more bang for the buck ...
