You may need to play on a resolution under 1080P and maybe on lower settings but both games should be playable on this.

I would say anything from a GTX 1050/RX 550 up to a GTX 1060 6gb/RX 580. The iGPU should be fine as long as you update it, then at least you can wait for GPU prices to normalize.
I'd change the above suggestion slightly, the integrated GPU of the G4560 is awful.
For the same money, an AMD A8-9600 and a MSI B350 PC Mate will give you higher gaming performance. Granted, this will reverse once you add a seperate GPU. You can upgrade the A8 to any Ryzen processor though, and you'll be good to go again once you have that dedicated GPU.
Otherwise, I'd recommend getting the Intel Pentium G4600 instead. It's slightly more expensive, but has a much better integrated GPU, so you'll be happier with it until you can get a dedicated GPU

That would add extra cost to the gpu upgrade then since you would need to swap out the cpu to get a good system. The a8's cpu is also extremely low end compared to other alternatives.
Well, but if he won't have the money to upgrade to a GPU on his G4560 system for several months, and gaming performance is crucial, it would make sense. You don't want to live with stuttering just so in half a year you'll feel like you made a better choice.
Of course, if the discrete GPU will be bought rather soon, it makes no sense to get the A8. Nobody can argue with that.
If that is the case, however, the G4600 is a much better choice. The price premium is truly minimal, but the performance increase during iGPU gaming will be high. And even after a discrete GPU is added, the extra clock speed will help a little

I agree the 4600 with the HD630 would be a bit better over the G4560 HD 610, as long as the OP can afford it.
