Since this is a gaming setup, as much money should go to the GPU as possible without resulting in a setup that bottlenecks the GPU. I would suggest taking money away from other components (Maybe a slower i5, I would NOT recommend a Ph2X4 if you aren't going to overclock though) to try and fit at least a GTX580, if not a Radeon HD 7950 or 7970 into your budget.

I would recommend upgrading the GPU GTX560 Ti if you aren't willing to sacrifice other components for the GPU for whatever reason and should be enough for gaming at 1080p single monitor.

I would put off the 1TB drive until prices return to normal if possible.
