I think the 4890 has similar performance to the GTX280, and they cost about £300.
EDIT: You might have to get DDR3 RAM, as not many AM3 motherboards support DDR2. ------------------- Core 2 Duo E6400 @ 2.66GHz (F7 Pro) 4GB DDR2 @ 800MHz GeForce 8800GT 512MB MSI P35 (MS-7392) WD Caviar Blue 500GB LG 20" WSXGA+ Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | |

What I was saying is that the Nvidia equivalent costs loads more. Get the 4890

The motherboard you linked a few posts up would work properly with that RAM. Only thing is, I would definitely get 2 sticks of that RAM if I were you. 2GB is not really enough for a decent gaming rig nowadays.

Don't you lose performance that way?

Nope, the only difference would be the ram, but since there's virtually no performance gain noticed from going from ddr2 to ddr3, it's not really a factor.

Doesn't it need to be a specific AM2+ motherboard to support AM3 CPUs? Not all of them do it, right?

Well the board itself should always work, it's just a matter of the bios supporting it, but I believe all am2+ board should support am3 perfectly.
