Hello guys ,
My old pc isn't able to keep up with the next gen games , therefore I would like to build a new one , so I concluded to these parts :

CPU: Intel Pentium G3220 3.0GHz Dual-Core Processor
MOBO: MSI H81M-P33 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 500GB, 7200rpm, SATA 6GB/s,16MB
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Video Card
PSU: Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

( Ignore the fact that the case is missing ) Is this build balanced ? And if not , what component should I replace ?

The pentium is mostly in line with what you have.
And the problem with the pentium is hitching in demanding games. It might push out FPS but you can't watch the screen because it's hitching like mad.

I don't build budget rigs because it's not worth the money. More and more games are pushing for at least quadcore too. So some games won't even launch on dualcores. Next step up would be FX-4300 or FX-6300. That is more expensive. Intel only has i3 in that range but it's a dualcore.

Any way you can save up another 200 euro? Because that is a bit of a sweet spot for decent gaming rig. Cpu +...

I cannot aford that much on a cpu , and I think that at this price range (50-70 ) there are no good quadcore cpu's , so I'd rather go with a g3258 , unless you can recomend a good quadcore cpu at this price range . I am running an athlon x4 750k as we are speaking , but ( even though it is more expensive than the pentium ) I am not that satisfied by its perfomance and everyone is on the pentiums favor . What do you think ?

Thanks for helping me out btw :)

200 euro for the rest. Case with 500 W power supply, 50 euro harddisk. 40-50 euro for memory.
