Every damn city builder out there
Every damn survival game of 2017

Gpu will be upgraded to a 1060 or rx 970 down the line and I will add ram and upgrade the cpu but rate this set up for now.

Very low end. Many games say they need the 6300 at a minimum. The 4300 just isn't enough. Here is a preview Toms did of upcoming games and the suggested minimums needed.

Notice that the first game on the list, Dead Rising 4, says it needs the 6300 minimum. Space Hulk: Deathwing says it needs the 8320. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard also lists the 6300 as needed. There are plenty of games that the 4300 will handle just fine, but if you want to play the newest stuff coming out you will have issues.

You are also using an ancient 760 chipset board and only 4GBs of ram. You might not have spent a lot on it, but I'm not sure you spent enough to make...

You posted three times in a row which is called bumping and not allowed on this forum. Edit your posts if you have more info.

You have a better CPU, though it's still very low end. You still have only 4GBs of ram which is going to hold you back a lot. You are getting there. But it's still not a gaming machine.
