To give you some ideas:

GFX:

4870 512mb ~ £175

GTX260 896mb ~ £200

GTX280 1gb ~ £280

9800GTX+ 512mb ~ £135

9800GX2 1gb ~ £320

4870X2 2gb ~ probably £300-£350??
I'd go with 4870 and get an RV800 after christmas XD
4870 is pretty good for overclocking. Pair it with a DuOrb cooler and jack it up to 825 for some fun. I bet that'd get you pretty darn close to a gtx 280 for a load cheaper.
