You could probably get a HD7xxx for about the same price as the gtx 560 but with superior performance. :)

[Edit]

Nevermind the gtx 560 is better than the HD 7770. >_<

Here in Croatia a gaming PC like that is not considered a "mid range budget build" but a "medium high-end pc".

A budget mid-range PC would be a PC like this one:
Phenom II x4, Intel i3 2100, AMD FX-6100
4 GB or 8 GB of DDR3 1333-1600 MHz
500-1000GB S-ATA HDD
Radeon HD 6850, HD 7770 or a GeForce GTX 550 Ti, GTX 460
420-450W PSU (Corsair CX430 v2, Seasonic SI2 430W, XFX Core 450W)
Cooler Master Elite 334, Thermaltake V4, ...

If you go SLI GTX 560, you might want to overclock the CPU a bit. Shouldn't be hard to do with that motherboard ;)
