i put this in another post and its around your price range 
mobo - £70 - £100 (loads a really good mobos for this price range)
case - can get a case for £18
ram - £67 (2 gig corsair 800mhz)
gfx - £180 (xfx 8800gts 320mb)
cpu - £104 (e6320)
psu - £60
hdd - £32 (WD oem 160gb sata)
Total = £561 if you got for a £100 mobo
i would not use the psu you posted either. just cos its 600w doesnt mean its a good psu.the corsair 520hx is much much better

HDD and RAM wise I can use the stuff from my old computer. It's not top of the range but it'll do for the time being. I can use an external HDD as my primary cant I?
Anyways, thanks for the advise on this, I should be able to revise the list and order it on thurs/fri
I'll post later with my new list.

External drive can be used if its not a USB drive... has to IDE or SATA... and the mobo will have to support the sockets on the back unless you wanna open the case all the time to connect the HDD.
Personally... I'd take the list I gave you and buy a 500GB HDD ontop. £60 if you get a Samsung.  _________________

I read that a 600+ wattage PSU is recommended for this card.

Hope not - cos i'm running it on a 500  - But the 320mb ram version definately only has one power connector - the fancy pants squillion quid 8800 has 2........
