Stretch the budget and go for a 7950. Personally, I wouldn't go from a GTX560 to a 7870/7870/GTX660, as the increase is not enough to justify the cost.
Second same GTX 560 to SLI.
I've seen a thread where guy changed GTX 460 SLI to a single GTX 660 - and it was a small improvement, mostly in maxFPS. But I compared his scores to mine (I've got 2xGTXes in SLI, too) and in my case such GTX 660 would be slower, LOL as I've got MSI Hawks, factory oc-ed cards. MinFPS would still be higher, anyway.
What's my point ? GTX 660 is 170-180 pounds minimum, and 660Ti is even more. HD7950 is out of your budget, too. So upto 150 quids second 560 would be nice boost, depending on your motherboard and PSU, of course.
