I would definitely recommend an r9 series graphics card, perhaps an r9 270 like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202090 which will run you about 160, or an r9 270 like this http://www.amazon.com/HIS-iPower-DLDVI-I-Graphics-H270QM2G2M/dp/B00GN5JE6M/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1407554381&sr=8-6&keywords=r9+270 which you can squeeze a little more performance out of, and a processor is up to you whether you want intel or AMD. If you plan to do gaming only I would recommend an AMD processor as they are typically easily overclockable (although they tend to get quite hot, so you might want to invest in an aftermarket CPU cooler) You can get a fx 8320 for about 150 and it wouldn't bottleneck your 270. Hope this helps :D
