I've got a first-gen i7, ancient GT 260 vid card, and 6 gigs of slow generic RAM powering my machine and Diablo 3 as well as SC2 run comfortably at high settings sans a few minor options.

I'll let the other gurus here tell you something useful about what is a good value, but my contribution is: you won't need to spend much. I've seen the new amd trinity CPUs (not that I would suggest it) take on D3 w/o GPU support.
