Graphics Card That would work with A10-6790k

[sensai]

Hello!

I'm planning to build this PC below Next week

will this RIG able to play GTA 4 and 5 at 1280x 1024 resolution with 30-35 FPS?

AMD A10-6790K
MOBO- ASUS A55BM
Ram- Kingston HyperX FURY 4GB
PSU- Corsair VS450 APFC, 450watts
HDD- Western Digital Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB

and What Graphics card would work with A10-6790k?

Thank you masters!

You should have no issues whatsoever in reaching desired FPS on such low resolution. Your RAM could use an upgrade to 8GB, though, most games now require it. As for the graphics card, you are limited by your power supply - the best you can get with low power usage is Nvidia GTX 750Ti. If you upgrade the PSU, to, say, XFX or Seasonic 550W or above, you can get pretty much any graphics card that can physically fit in your case.

Any GPU will work with it - however you would be well advised to bump up to the 550w model of that PSU if you intend to buy a descrete GPU.
You are wasting money on an integrated chip IMO if you're adding a separate graphics cards.
Also the integrated graphics will really struggle with only 4gb ram.
You'd be better with a 750k/760k/860k & a 750ti or r7 260x for gaming IMO,you would get away with 4gb ram with a card with its own dedicated vram

For example, I upgraded my ram to 8GB with A10-6790k alone. would be wise ? or

Would I go for Intel Pentium G3258 with r7-260x ? Thank you

What is your budget? I am sure we can think of something 😉

$300 or $310

You gave an Idea sir. I mean in $300, What specs would you recommend to play GTA 5/4 at 1280x1024 resolution? At least 35 FPS . Thank you

The one you posted above would do for this resolution without any additional graphics card. The best would be to get 8GB of 1866MHz memory, however. For any significant improvement in this build, you would need a budget of at least $400, that would be a solid start.

For example, this build, which you can later upgrade to i3, i5 or i7 CPU if you desire so, and even get a much more powerful graphics card when you feel like 260X is not enough anymore, since the PSU is powerful enough:
