When it comes to budget builds, there are some compromises most users are willing to make more than others. One argument I've heard more often than others is that, if a GPU is going in the PC anyway, it's a reasonable call to buy a processor that lacks integrated graphics and spend the change elsewhere. After all, both major manufacturers of desktop processors, AMD and Intel, have F-series processors that can be bought for $15-$40 less.
