i can stretch my budget to 170 but im looking for a combo for 150 because i want to have enough money left over to buy games. im hoping for no bottleneck and i was thinking of rx 460 powercolor 2gb red dragon with a g4500 pentium but i want to save more money and go with a cheaper combo.
Best gpu and cpu combo for 150$

Solution
what is your motherboard make and model, cannot define a proper great deal unless I know what I am plugging it into.

If you have a 1151 socket motherboard (since your considering the G4500) then I would look into doing a BIOS update then getting the G4560 as its similar to the i3-6100 but for much cheaper.

Look to get a RX460 that is tested and confirmed to be working with the unlocking extra TMU+StreamProcessors BIOS to get an extra 20% performance (BIOS+overclock):
