Hi,
You need to have a patched Kernel since the Pentium D you are using is based on the NetBurst architecture.
Using the Vanilla Kernel requieres you to have a CPU that's at least based on the Intel-Core-Microarchitecture.
(Don't mess this up with Multi-Core CPUs in generell - two different animals)
The Core i7 can be used with the Vanilla Kernel since it's just a Nehalem using HyperThreading, what's both supported by OS X. (You might gonna need to create a patched DSDT to be able to use all cores, depending on your mainboard)
I have no proofed answer on you question about the 4870, but you can read about it here: http://netkas.org/?p=84 - in any case I would recommend you to get a supported GeForce instead if you're going to use OSx86.
