Building a PC, need help.

So yeah, i'm starting to build a PC (Finally, now got my money together.)

So would i be fine with these parts:

Case: Antec Sonata III Silent ATX-Case (500W PS)

Motherboard: Asus P5Q Pro, ATX, s775, IP45, DDR2, GBLAN,,8-CH Audio (4x 240-pin DIMM (Dual channel), DDR2 1200/1066/800/667MHz)

Video card: MSI HD 4830 PCIE 512MB GDDR3 2X DVI+HDMI

Processor: Intel CORE 2 DUO E5400 2.7GHZ 800/2M S775

RAM: Corsair 2 x 2GB (TWIN2X4096-6400C5 ) DDR2, 800MHz, 5-5-5-18

Hard drive: Samsung 500GB Spinpoint T166, 3.5", SATAII/300, 16MB, 7200RPM


The motherboard has an integrated sound card (As you can see) and the case has a power source ready.

Tbh go for an Intel Duo Q6600 Quad Core, I have one and it's literally the dog's bollocks. It should run with your mobo, can't tell at this present moment and time.

Changed the video card to ATI Radeon HD 4870, Memory to 2x 4GB ram, and perhaps changing the processor.

Sorry to go a bit off topic, how much would be recommended to build my own computer?

Around 500 - 600 euros would be enough. With the parts i have it's around 550 euros.
