I am still confused wether to get an Haswell i5-4460 or i3-4160 and if I will be future proof with a i3 with more demanding programs coming up.

For gaming I won't play any upcoming triple A games but mostly indie games, Steam exclusives and older games which mostly utilise 1 or 2 cores like ArmA 2 and Planetside 2.
For editing, I will only do slight editing with Movie Maker, nothing more than 10min videos.

Reason for asking is because I am on a tight budget and want to spend a little more on the graphics card.

I know it has, but it's a 80 euro difference here. And I don't think I won't benefit that much from it apart from the rendering and a little more performance in gaming.
