Its cheap as hell and ranks very well on this chart:

It can also be overclocked. I'd assume it would do well because its per core performance seems to be very good according to the chart and BnS?TERA is more about performance per core rather than quantity of cores. I just figured I would ask before I bought it because I am not totally sure and do not have the best knowledge on the subject. Thanks.

The G3258 is a great little CPU, but it does have stutter issues in more CPU intensive games like GTA V. Not sure about the games you mentioned, but I would research it a little. You might consider an i3 41xx, it's a hyper threaded dual core and may work better for gaming.
