Gaming system on a budget

[Koyabult]

Hello. New guy here. Im about to go through my first solo build in a foreign land, wherein im looking at decent gaming and a decent overall pc for photoshop and other office apps. Im double thinking on a Skylake system, but shuffling around the gpu and cpu component.. Budget is a tight issue as well since getting married and a kid takes out the ROG or alienware level of specs.

My planned build

Variable

Core i3 6100 + rx470 4gb
Or
Core i5 6500 + rx 460 4gb

Standards
128gb ssd - i have 2tb external
550w psu - looking at thermaltake or coolermaster
8 gb ddr4 2133 / 2400
H110 mobo - no oc plans..
19inch hd monitor 1600x900?

Overall im hovering at 2600aed / usd 600.. And prices here in the desert is a bit high

Games im looking to play / playing
Dota2
Dark souls 3
ROTR
Doom
Battlefield / COD titles..

Which one should i push?

Absolutely 100% the i3 & 470 if you can do it mate
Far better combo than the i5 & 460.

Copy that sir. The i5 is in contention since the pc wont be solely for gaming, but will use it as well for office apps. I can do an upgrade of the procie if the need arises..
