$500 Budget Gaming Intel-NOOB HERE!!(PHILIPPINES)

$500 BUDGET
PLEASE TOLERATE MY NOOB RESEARCH!!
I WON'T OVERCLOCK!!
take note that i put in mind our electricity bill and the ease of upgradability of parts

CPU: as far as my research has gone..my mind is clear that i will start with an i3-3220 ..but a friend said that i should go with pentium g2120 beacuse it is much cheaper, it is an i3 w/o hyperthreading, and much better in price-performance ratio which i find great.

MOBO-any compatible..the one that i can easily upgrade my parts easily (especially the cpu to i5/i7)..so i won't buy another one for that upgrade

RAM-i think 4gb is enough to start? i'll just upgrade it in the future

HDD-is 320gb enough? i'll upgrade when money permits me hehe.. i have a 500gb laptop.i'll just put there the least important ones so much space will be saved..

GPU-1-3, from most to least priority..open for suggestions:
1.radeon hd 7750 1gb ddr5-a cpu match and because of its price

2.gtx 650(non ti)-in the level of 7750,cpu match

3.hd 7770 -this is really what i have chosen..but beacuse of its price..also a cpu match
.my friend said that i start with gtx 650 ti boost paired with g2120, so no gpu upgrade is needed- is it good?

ODD-any compatible

CASING-any compatible,with sufficient allowance for ventilation

POWER SUPPLY-the one with 80+ bronze,silver.etc. is better..like i said i have in mind our electricity bill...

MONITOR-i have a 29''

i will play ac3, bf3,skyrim, i don't play online games a lot...
thank you and God bless for those who will answer!!!

A 7770 or a 650Ti are great cards but will be bottlenecked by the CPU you want. There are many other threads already about computer parts in your price range.

For $500 will be a stretch to get anything decent for games, especially if you want to go over Low settings in some of the newer stuff. $600 is a lot better.
