it will work as long as your PSU can support the GTX 280, if it can't power it then you may be saying goodbye to your PC.

performance will be the same, and the PSU is overkill.

also you can't SLI with P45 boards.

if you haven't bought the '280 already then get a 4890 or 4870 X2, more bang for your buck.

the PSU is overkill as in you could use a 550w version by the same company and it would still work.

and what about that product?

no, it's just that efficiency will be lower on a higher wattage PSU, but only by a couple of percent.

the Q6600 is old tech, I didn't even know you could get them anymore.

get a phenom II 940 and a 790GX motherboard, it will be quicker and cost about the same.
