yeah can defo play those games, high medium at high fps

Both games will probably run just fine since they're not demanding games. You just may have to turn some settings down to play at good framerates.

TF2 is not a problem at all @ 1920x1080. CS Go I am not sure on since I've never tried it. I do know Smite ran almost flawless details maxed and WoT did with 90% of the details turned down @ 1920x1080. I got bored one day and decided to try and compare the 4600 to the amd 7770 I have.... lol
