Solution
ok so here we go.... g1620 around 40$, a asus motherboard socket 1155 around 60-70$, 1X4gb ddr3 around 40$ and a corsair 430w psu around 20$. as you see all under 200$ since you already have a case. i havent mentioned a gpu because the cpu that i have related has his own gpu integrated in the cpu like hd 2000 and i think it is better than your gt 210. the beauty of this build is that later when you have the money you can throw a i3,i5,i7 CPU socket 1155 changing only the cpu and as it seems obvoius later you can put a decent gpu in this pc. hope that helps you. good luck.

To play games at the performance of a ps4 you are going to need a little higher budget than that. Probably around 400-450. With that money you could buy an ok gpu, but still nothing crazy.

with that budget you can only buy a gpu and a cpu that is better than ps4. i5 3470 and a r9 270. if you want a pc for those money you need g1620 cpu, asus mobo 1155 socket, 1X4gb ddr3 ram, corsair 430w psu, hd 7750 gddr5 and a case.
