If you don't change power supply, check if it can sustain you'r new components.
Components are ok.

I'm going to be getting a complete new system, which includes a 650w power supply so it should be ok I think.

New core Conroe (great performance), dual core, 4Mb cache. You can read here about new processor family from intel:

What you linked it's a joke in comparation with core 2 duo, and if speed in Mhz it is higher, that not mean it's faster;)

Re: Advice on new sputer |

I would suggest maybe getting an nForce motherboard like this (model number GA-8N-SLI if youre interested) if you are also getting an nVidia graphics card; you get unified motherboard and graphics card drivers which can add a lot of customisability (ie overclocking potential) pretty easily. But if you are only going to be using this for WoW then you certainly dont need to overclock.
You should probably make sure you get a case with a fair amount of cooling as well, the graphics card you have chosen is a beast (I have this one and it comes with 3 case fans. Along with your CPU fan and your GPU fan you have a lot of airflow)! For the same reason you should get a quality Power Supply (like this) like Morph suggested as low quality PSUs can give poorly conditioned signals which can burn out your nice new shiny graphics card.
Hope that helps. I am nub.
