For your budget, I'd recommend

The APU is one of the more powerful ones which will put out performance near a single 7750. Crossfiring two 7750's isn't worth it due to lackluster gains. If you feel that you will need more oomph in your system, the PSU I selected leaves plenty of headroom for a bigger GPU in the future. I did convert currency beforehand and that build totals out to be 571.87 aud.

Rid the APU and get a FX processor, something like the Fx 6300 or FX4300. Don't run the 7750's in crossfire, you'll find that the problems that crossfire has will not be worth the performance. As mentioned above, go for a 7870 or a r9 270 if you have the cash. If you don't mind Nvidia you can always get a GTX 660 or GTX 650Ti.

Just a note though, that computer will need an operating system. If you are on a budget SteamOS is free although if you happen to run across a copy of windows, that will work aswell.
