First i'm going with mobo asus b150m pro gaming and the cpu is core i5-6500 and also a ram team elite ddr4 2666 2x4gb 

the question is which gpu should i choose? The gigabyte gtx 960 , gtx 950, or gtx 750ti?

oh yeah i wanted to play something great like witcher 3 gta v and something like that with great performance because i'm a little tight in budget here so don't sugest higher then gtx 960 or so

If you want good performance get the best GPU you can afford. Id say to look around for a GTX 970 second hand. With the 1070 and 1060 coming out there are A LOT of second hand 970s about. I know on my local classifieds there were at least 3, with one only costing about $150, which I could have picked up to SLI if I had the PSU for it lol.

If you don't want to risk picking up a used card the 960 will play AAA games, but don't expect Ultra Settings 60 fps.

I suggest going with the GTX 960 but if you can't afford that, go with a GTX 950. It delivers almost the same performance. I would recommend the GTX 960

Okay then gtx 960 

Gigabyte gtx 960 with msi gtx 960 and also asus gtx 960 which better?

Second thing should i use 2gb or 4 gb?

And is it going to make a big difference? Cause my mother board doesn't support any OC system 

And also my friend told me that going with 2 ram is better then 1 ram with the same amount of 2 ram is it true?

Well i do agree with it cause my friend using it too, but i'm a little bit concern because for the next year or two there will be a new game with crazy performance i don't want to waste something for great performance for a short period of time at least i my computer can keep up for the next year game or so that would be great

I think i'm going with 960 new but what if i'm going with the 4 gb gtx 960? Cause you know people said the bigger the better right? Cause when i'm going with 970 it going about $100 more expensive and also it only get me a 2gb gtx 970 

is it still can't achive the high performance for gaming system? Like witcher 3 or gta v with maxed setting? And also the monitor will it be something to be concern to? If yes then i would tell you i'm going with sony 32" tv and i'm going with hdmi connector

Yea they seem to be a great card, alot better than any 960 or 750ti. The gtx 1060 is also worth considering for abit more money or possibly wait for the gtx1050. rx470 releases soon also.
