A LinusTechTips video show that AMD Dual graphics don't worth it.

G3258 gives the best performance/price ratio for gaming.

Depends on the GPU you have or are getting. Anything above a 280 or 770, go Intel, don't even think about amd.

Right but if you have a stronger gpu and disable igpu which is athlons they can hold their own . They also come in handy if your gpu were to fail for whatever reason. But with that said if you do indeed disable the Igpu it's a little steep price wise

Off topic. But how much did your pentium build cost? 

 

On Topic: I'd get the 6300 if your really on a tight budget, but Intel-4430 ain't that bad. It can drop as low as 150 on amazon.

Core i3-4150 or core i5-4460 is what i would recommend, avoid AMD and avoid dual core pentiums.
