No, those parts will all work together. If this a budget build, for playing the latest games, you might consider dropping back on the CPU in order to get a better GPU, for example an e7200 and a HD4850; you could always go with your parts and then just get a 4850 later if you need it.

There is a nice bundle discount at newegg for the E8400 bundled with a ASUS P5Q Pro for $254.98 - $15 MIR (the P5Q Pro is a better board than the P5QL Pro that you have chosen)

Also, go with 64bit Vista. If its within your budget, I would highly suggest you upgrade to a 4850 GPU.

Cheaper ram, $24.99 after MIR:
