I want to play games such as ARK, GTA, Battlefiel1 and get a min of 40fps on ulra, high and maybe medium settings. DO NOT CHANGE THE KEYBOARD/MOUSE, HEADSET. I want it to be 60hz 1080p IPS monitor. Anyway I can cut about $150 and get the same or similar gaming performance as this?

Thank you for your time!

It won't be better, but the Pentium G4560 costs 50-60 dollars and delivers roughly 92-93% of the i3-7100 for half the price. So you can spend your money on a better graphics card and get much better performance overall.

G4560 + GTX 1060 3GB/RX 480 4GB is the best possible deal

CPU: Intel Pentium G4560 3.5GHz Dual-Core Processor ($61.99 @ Jet)
Video Card: MSI Radeon RX 480 4GB Video Card ($184.98 @ Newegg)
Total: $246.97

GEt one of the new pentiums and upgrade that psu it won't be able to sustain that pc. You are going to have to pay 800$ as those are the lowest we can really go without getting worse parts (maybe the b250 can be changed fora cheaper one).
