How 'bout 1280x1024 60hz?

I think you'd be fine, I was able to pull off Medium @ 1280X1024 on a X800XT and get a steady 30-40FPS. The game is pretty well optimized, and it looks great too.

You could get HD3870 for less money than 8800GT and I bet soon ATI will release better driver that it will make it better than 8800GT

8800GTX in SLI config. You don't need it to run that fast, 30+ fps is more than enough for smooth gameplay

You mean in that video I posted that's only 30 fps? How many would you say that is?

First of all, do you have a PCIe x16 slot?

You need to put a pic of that in your signature and just tell everybody: "sig". It would save you a lot of time.
