Are you sure you're in the correct forum?
Er...never thought about that..my other post was answered tho...
Now...back to topic...
If you like intell get a 3.0Ghz or faster system with at least a gig of ram and the best grafix card you can afford (geforce fx 5700 or better). For AMD get an athalon 64 3200+ or faster, again at least a gig of ram and the best grafix card you can budget. This will run the game fine. The more Ram and grafix card you can buy the higher the setting you'll be able to use.
Yeah, I'd do Betty....
But I'd be thinking about Wilma.

Total = £978
Will these parts all fit together nicely? Or will I need to change some stuff? If so what do you recommend?
Also...what other parts do I need? ( £1000 max )

Should all work together.
I use that same CPU but I went with a gygabyte k8n pro mainboard. (just took another look at your selected mainboard.. you may want to get one with that chipset but more ram slots, as that one only has 2)
With that Grafix card you'll fun EQ2 on fairly High settings. I'd recomend getting as much ram as your mainboard will support when you can afford it. EQ2 loves ram and it will use your hard drive as extended memory when it runs out of ram, wich will cause your grafix to jitter, regardless of your grafix card.
Also, don't forget an OS.
