First off just so you know your links  Don't work.
 
Well i would go with the Q6600 = $219.99
a Western D 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB 3.0Gb/s = $84.99
G.Skill (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800= $84.99
Mobo - EVGA 680i = $179.99
PSU - RoseWill 750W = $139.99
Case - Antec 900 = $119.99
 
and if your looking for cheaper id go with the  
 
8800GTS 320MB 320-bit GDDR3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130082
 
Otherwise sorry i cant help much more,
 
Hope this helps!

i have fixed the links now.
Why would you go with Q6600? because of price or performance wise?
 

Do you plan on overclocking?
 
Do you plan on using multiple video in an SLI setup?
 
Go for a 2x2gb RAM kit for a total of 4gb instead of 4x1gb.  It's generally cheaper and it also allows for you to upgrade to 8gb total in the future.
 
The 8800GT is a decent card.  For a bit more you could go with the 8800GTS (G92) 512MB card.  It's a bit faster and has better cooling than the 8800GT.  If you do decide to upgrade the card to the 8800GTS make sure to get the 512MB (G92) version as it's newer tech than the 320mb or 640mb versions.
 
Good HDD choice.
 
Great choice on PSU, though it's probably overkill if you're only going to run 1 video card with it.  Buy.com always seems to have the best prices on Corsair PSU's if you want to save a few bucks.  You can get by with a 550 or 650W version with the components you've selected and save some addidional $.
 
I'm not really familiar with that case.  It seems decent, though the Antec 900 is similarly priced (after rebate) and has great cooling.

Yes, im planning to overclock the processor and i would like to have an option of SLI so i can add 2nd card in future without upgrading motherboard.
I was unaware about the 8800GTS, of course i would go with GTS cause price is almost same after rebate.
I found 1 8800GTS for $169

is this same as

??
 
2x2GB ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6820227199
$8 more than 4x1GB but its worth it i guess
 
Corsair TX 650W http://www.buy.com/prod/corsair-tx [...] 78324.html
but its not SLI certified and on the other hand Corsair 520W  is SLI certified for same price. but 520W is enough for SLI?
