Solution
The G4560 is an Intel i3 performing at 5% lower compared to the i3-7100. It costs half as much, so It's the much wiser option along with a B250M motherboard that's required for it. It also gives you the option to upgrade the GPU.

It's compatible but:
-there may be issue with motherboard not having correct BIOS version to run that CPU. If that happens, you will need SkyLake CPU to boot it so you can upgrade BIOS. To avoid such risk, you should stick to 7th gen boards, like B250.
-PSU is not best one. I would rather use one of those https://pcpartpicker.com/products/compare/FQ648d,4Vzv6h/
