Assuming you are building a new system (and therefor aren't handicapped by a non-SATA mobo) there is no reason NOT to go SATA150. Same price, better performance than ATA drives.
For a serious gamer the FX-60 is logical choice, even in a midrange system. A $185 core duo doesn't really compare. Budget does matter - but a midrange system is all about where you spend the money not what level of individual compnents you buy.
