Here is the budget build that I did for my GF:

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 840 (3.2GHz)
Motherboard: MSI 880G-E45
RAM: 4GB Corsair DDR3-1333(I think?)
HDD: Seagate 1.5TB (bought it before the prices jumped because of the shortage)
GPU: 1GB MSI R6770
PSU: Cooler Master 460W
Case: Thermaltake mid-tower

We did this for less than $600 and it runs BF3 on High at 1680x1050 with ease.

Well, you wouldn't want to try to play any games with a multi-monitor config with this system. Plus the R6770 only supports two. For a single monitor configuration it's a great performer, though.
