Please help me to choose the correct build, i just have 350$~ to select (CPU-MoBo-GPU-Ram)betwen those build.
If i select the:

g3258, the msi z97 global mate, a r7 260x and 8 gb is dealin 350 usd.(But has i know the pentium is gettin slutted and weak, because all newer games become with quad core, requeriments)

i3 4160, asus h97 pro 4, 8 gb ram, and r7 250x, for 363~(But actually the gpu is weak)

And the i5 4460 asus h97 pro 4, and 8 gb, but w/o gpu(so i can save for a 150$ gpu till december, and stay with a high end gaming cpu)

Just help me to choose the correct and explain why, please.

Do you need a GPU to game right now? If so save more rather than buying now.
Don't bother with the G3258 if you going to move to an i5 4460, it will be a waste of money.
If you fine not gaming for a while, the i5 4460 is the better route.

Im planning to game right now ,but no high end till december, for the moment ill play dota2, lol, wow, you know casual games just to fun in time, and the intel hd 4600 run those games fine.
 


The intel HD 4600 graphics should be fine with these games.
 


Maybe , maybe not. For current application yes it is probably sufficient until 2020 or beyond. For any new games, it is difficult to tell and predict as it depends on how far the game developers will push.
