Get a 270 or a 270X instead of the 750ti.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

But honestly, i think this will give you the best performance.

 

CPU is 10-15% slower then i3 in GAMING, outside of gaming, i3 is notably faster. The G3258 is well.... its fast, if you OC it, but in newer games it either wont be allowed to run (game requires 4 "cores"), or it will lag and freeze (GTA 5). The Athlon, while generally a few % lower in performance, does not have these issues. So if you are willing to sacrifice 5-10 FPS (dont worry, you will still be WAY over 60FPS in most games at 1080p), then Athlon is the better choice.

 

If you plan to upgrade to an i3 or i5 within say, 6-12 months, then the intel setup will benefit you more.

If you do NOT plan to upgrade to an i3 or i5 within 6-12 months, then Athlon will give you a smoother experience in most games.
