Could this build last me for about a year? I'll be going all out by the end of the next year, but for various reasons, I'm currently left with no PC now except for my work laptop and not enough money for a proper build.

Gigabyte GA-H81M-S2P
Intel Core i3 4130 3.4GHz
Corsair ValueSelect 4GB 1600 Mhz DDR3 stick [X2 for 8]
Sapphire Radeon HD7730 1GB GDDR5
Cooler Master GX 550W PSU (Have this thing already)

I'm not expecting much out of this. Just need 30 FPS at 1366x768 around medium settings in current games. What do you guys think? Thanks for any pointers.

PS. Going for AMD in the processor department is pretty much out of the question, since AMD processors and motherboards with appropriate sockets are rare in my country, and buying online takes ages, once again due to the country.
 
Solution
If you want to game at that resolution, I recommend an HD 7750. The 7730 *will* run most games at that resolution on the lowest settings, however (it's roughly equivalent to a 6670).
