I don't have much experience with AMD systems, but I reckon I've got a similar Intel system:

I'm running an Intel Sandybridge / H61 Chipset based system, with an i3 2120 running four effective cores, 8Gb of DDR3 RAM and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 550Ti.

I've found I can run Tekkit (Minecraft - High Settings) at around 50fps, World of Warplanes (High Settings) at around 40fps and Xcom Enemy Unknown at around 35fps.

Hope this helps.
Regards.

The higher frequency memory would be better in this situation because it will improve integrated graphics performance. These components are compatible, but I'm sure that you know that you'll need more such as a case, power supply, and the rest.

An i3 does not have four effective cores. Hyper-Threading isn't nearly that effective. A Hyper-Threaded dual-core CPU wouldn't even reach a non-Hyper-Threaded triple core CPU (that is otherwise identical) in well-threaded performance.

How about you give me a budget to work with and I'll see what I can work out for you?
