With a monitor, OS etc it get's a little bit difficult.

Assuming you're not looking for more than 1080p.......you could go either way, a lesser GPU with a better CPU or vice-versa. I don't think either option would be bad for your planned uses.

The i3 should be sufficient for both games, and you could always upgrade to an i5 in future.

Alternatively, the i5 would be the better long-term purchase, and you could upgrade your GPU as/when needed.

I didn't include a case in either, as that's 100% personal preference (as long as it fits your components, of course).
