Hi i built myself my new gamming pc and my brother thinks that i know a lot about computers, so he asked me if i can build a low value computer for his friend.I dont want to disappoint him but i dont know some things.

i plan to build a pentium rig with the cheapest mobo i find.

Can the pentium's integrated graphics handle games so i can spend the saved money from GPU in more ram amd other things.(it is suppose to be a gameing machine)(games like diablo 3 heartstone and can it run battlefeild 4)

thanks for help

p.s.are i3's graphics better than pentium's?
