Basically, iam willing to upgrade my bundle which is q9400 with ddr2 4gb ram and mobo, but iam keeping my gtx 750 2gb for a while, so actually my budget is quite tight i have like 250-300 $ ..
Without further to say I was asking because there are too much cpus in my mind .. should i go for maybe i7 2600k or like i5 4690k for maybe the same price used as i3 8100 new one or switch the table to the new awesome ryzen 3 2200g with integrated graphics card that i think it might help my dedicated card and at last 8gb ddr4 ofc ?? Or should i sell my gtx 750 and get the ryzen 5 2400g and play without a dedicated card if its better ?

The 2400G is great for someone who doesn't have a gaming card. You have a gaming card, the 750 2gb is close enough. We are talking low end vs low end here, so any performance difference will be minimal.

However your 750 has one huge advantage- it has its own vram. The Ryzen graphics will use 2gb of your expensive DDR4 system ram. So I'd go wit the i3 8100 and pair it with the 750.

the 750 is within grabbing distance of the vega 11 in the 2400g.

take results as a generalization only but the gist, you get the gist.

I too say get the 8100 and keep the 750 until you can replace it.
