You should go for the Pentium G2030, for gaming, as they are more VFM for gaming than i3 (since most of the games don't utilize the hyper-threading of i3). A better Mobo is a must. HD7790 is the best card you can get at 120$.

If you want to build a gaming system, I recommend you to spend more on GPU, like R9 270.

ok take 7770 with 2gb though,1gb is the absolute minimum these days!

Couldn't you get the pentium and the 7790 then in 4 months upgrade to the i5? I think in the long run this would be the better solution.
