1) List down all games that you want to play with your rig.

2) Can increase budget? $800 a bit difficult to put in SSD for proper gaming.

ssd not the main priority as it only affects loading speed not gaming performance. GPU is the main affecting factor

this looks solid thanks. But I've never heard of the processor...how does it compare to i3/i5 etc?

Only play games occasionally so can sacrifice graphics for the daily use benefits of ssd

its a pentium processor, makes i3 looks like a waste of money for light users. however as compared to i5, for games or apps which uses quad core, 3258 might lose out abit

Normal usage no issue, gaming wise of cos i5 will be better.

Games like LoL , Dota2, CS.GO will have no issue running smoothly. More intensive games u will have to play in mid-low settings :o
