Spec me a new system please?

With the approach of Command & Conquer coming out, I've come to the grim realisation that my current system is in no way going to cut it, so Tina gave me the go-ahead to upgrade.

This is what I'm looking at :
Biostar MCP6P-M2
AMD Phenom Triple Core 8450 2.1GHz
Viotek 600W PSU
4GB DDR2 PC6400
8400 GS 512MB PCI-E (or should I go for the HD 3450 for the same price?)

All of the above come with a 1yr warranty. I'd use my existing HDD (160GB) and my XP, my DVDRW, keyboard, mouse and monitor.

Would the above system handle everything the new game could throw at it, or are there some things that I've overlooked?

Please help out someone who's been out of the loop since Athlon XP2500M's were the shiznit...
