$600 Build for a Friend - Hardware & Software

My friend and his dad want to play Diablo III when it is released. He asked me what brand to get and I told him I could build him one. He gave a budget of ~$600 [USD]. They have a mouse, keyboard and monitor[1024x768].We plan on reusing the IDE dvd drive, but thats about all we are going to salvage. I already have an OS for them, so one won't be needed. I have built a computer before, just want to get the best bang for my buck, so I was looking for a few suggestions. Also, wtf is up with DDR2 ram? Its like 90 bucks for 4 gigs... [editline]12:23PM[/editline] Help anyone?

Thanks. Will the 4850 fit in that case? Also, what the fuck is up with DDR2 prices? They practically doubled.

Yeah memory makes see that ddr3 is new common memory type so they increase prices a bit and speed up the proccess.
