With 2GB RAM, you probs won't be able to load most new games very easily, if at all.

OK. Then get at least 6GB more Ram and a GTX 1050. What games do you want to play?

Find a Q6600 or any quad-core LGA 775 CPU TBH.  

Find out how much ram your board can run and get up-to 8GBs of DDR2. 

You can find a 750Ti for $50 shipped.  

Maybe a 120GB SSD to put windows and a couple small games on it or you might need a new PSU rather than an SSD. I can help find some these parts if wanted.

CPU/RAM $25 max, GPU $50-$60 max, PSU/SSD will take up rest of budget 

 

With this, tbh, you'll be able to run much more than just unturned.

You're best bet is to look at used stuff.

 

I honestly doubt that old pentium will be capable of running even gmod, unless you're playing it at like 480p.

Hmmm. You'll be hard pressed to pull off a mobo, CPU, and RAM upgrade fro only $200 USD. And then you still won't have a GPU, so you won't be able to run any games unless they're old or you turn the settings as low as they can possibly go.

$157 snd you only get the cheapest B250 mobo and 4GB RAM. You'd be best off looking for a used system with an older i5 or i7 for this price point.

No, that is not the best case of action. Look at my post. You likely don't need a new Mobo at all. 

I went ahead and looked at prices more in depth. 

Q6600 $13

2x4GB DDR2 Kit $10-$20 (have to double check if your boards dimm slots will accept 4GB sticks) 

GTX 650 Ti Boost goes for $30-$40 or a GTX 750 Ti for $40-$60

So that is $63-$93. $27 left to go towards either a new PSU if you need one (I'd probably just get one rather than a 120GB SSD) and just fresh install windows. Plus you might need to spend $4 on some thermal paste

I live in India so it's very hard to find used parts here. So what do u think about a fm2+ motherboard and a6-6400k with a stick of ddr3 4gb ram.

if you had that in mind, why not just say that to begin with so we can advise against or for your suggestion? rather than make new suggestions.
