Hi,
I'm always on a bit of a budget where pcs are concerned. I want to upgrade a budget graphics card I bought a while ago to a slightly better one. Will I notice much difference in performance between these 2 cards?

from this one..
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 3450 Silence 512MB DDR2 TV-Out/DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail

to this one..
Powercolor ATI Radeon HD 4850 1GB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail Powercolor ATI Radeon HD 4850 1GB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail

Yes, they don't need to be the same for it to work (4850 uses GDDR3).

The increase in performance will be quite startling, I hope you have a PC which will make full use of it :)
