I would contribute, but within seconds CAT will have something up that I cant disagree with.

InB4CAT: Dont get a HD5770 unless you're going to CF - which you wont be on that budget. Get a HD4870 or HD4890 instead
 
If you want a build which needs a copy of Windows 7 this is what I would get:

Phenom II X3 720BE ~ £100

Asus M4A77D ~ £60

4GB 1066MHZ DDR2 ~ £72

Corsair CX 400W ~ £37

Coolermaster Elite 334 Midi Case ~ £28

HD4770 512MB ~ £74

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit ~ £76

The total comes to around £447 excluding postage.

The game the OP mentioned will work better on triple and quad core processors.
