You'd benefit greatly from 2GB of RAM vs 1GB, if you can afford it that is. Otherwise a fine spec.

Sure it depends on what other things you will be running off the PSU, number of HDD, GFX card. Could probably get a higher wattage enermax to give you a bit more headroom for OC'ing.

Depends on gfx card mainly, if you have a nvidia 7xxx series or 6xxx or a lower end ati (non 18xx 19xx series) , your psu is more than good enough...

6700 is an overclocked 6600gt if i renember correctly, 6600gt needs no more as 350 watts , so you're good, core 2 duo's are very energy-efficient...
