Help with beginner budget pc build

[royalsound1942]

Hello guys, I’m thinking about building a pc for games such as overwatch, diablo 3, path of exile, blade and soul and other online mmorpgs. The components in question are as follows :
Pentium G4560
ASUS H110M-K
Saphire RX 460 4GB
8GB of DDR4 Ram

I’m really confused whether each component is compatible with each other and figured I should ask for help. Also if you guys could possibly give me cheaper alternatives as I feel mmorpgs and games like the ones I’ll be playing aren’t as demanding graphically. Thanks in advance!

They're compatible - at least in theory.

The H110 board likely needs a BIOS update to support the G4560 and, while the Pentium was a solid "bang for buck" option at launch, something like a Ryzen3 1200 might be a better option (for similar-ish money) for the long run.

Thanks for your answer!
Question, how does the Ryzen 1200 perform in comparison to the G4560. I really don’t mind reducing hardware as long as I can play these games smoothly and at medium to high settings

Really depends on the title and you'd need to look at benchmarks for titles you want to play; I'm not too familiar with the majority of those titles unfortunately.

I'd expect then to perform similarly enough when paired with a 460, but there may be specific titles that favour one or the other heavily.

Just picking a random benchmark video (at random).

Those results are paired with a 1060. With a 460, medium/high might be a stretch on all titles, but a solid medium average should be achievable

The Ryzen3 will benefit from OC'ing and faster ram though, which may make it marginally more expensive.... would be my pick though
