HD4870 is (in my opinion) not a good choice. + It's not gddr3 it's gddr5 :p

+ DDR3 memory is kinda useless atm, too expensive

my suggestion

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (3 GHz, but you can overclock it easily. If so, buy a new fan like the OCZ Vendetta, but not the second one),
OCZ Platinum 2 x 1 Go DDRII (PC6400),
Asus P5Q3
Sapphire HD4850 512 Mo GDDR3 (PCI-E ofc)
I'd suggest you Antec Sonata III as case because it's kinda quiet and Antec is doing good products + there's already a powersupply there : Antec EarthWatts 500W
Maxtor DiamondMax 22 32 Mo - S-ATA (500 Go)
for the o/s, download Windows Trust 3 somewhere on a forum and install it (nothing to do, and it can install some useful apps) - OR LINUX

Not even 600€.

Or you want a nice card with a _really_ nice ratio between price and perfs (HD 4850) or you want amazing perfs (with ATi - HD 4870x2 or crossfire of HD 4850). HD 4870 is in the middle and not worth it's price having a look at the gains (only 15 or 25%? don't remember exactly). For this price, they'd better have put 1 / 1,5 Go GDDR3 instead of 512 Mo GDDR5, ...

But it's just my opinion.

I agree that hd4850 has better price/quality ratio. However, hd4870 will give u 25-30% performance gain. That prolly doesn't mean a shit if u are playing old games or you are using some little monitors.

Still hd4870 will last longer and after it's not enough you can just add another one.

And the price difference is around 50€.

50€ difference? you gotta be kidding me ! :p

HD 4850 = ~140/145€ (512 Mo GDDR3 version)
HD 4870 = ~230/235€ (512 Mo GDDR5 version)
