CPU
Intel Core i3 6100 9,400/= link Motherboard
H110 DDR4 Motherboard (Your choice of brand) 6,000/= RAM
1x8GB Corsair LPX DDR4 2400 3,300/= link HDD
1 TB Toshiba/WD Blue 4,000/=
Total: 22,700/= (without Case)
Gains: Slightly More Future Proof (open slot for another 8GB RAM, option to upgrade to a better CPU later), theoretically more compatible with newer gpu, and for gaming Skylake is better than Haswell
Loss: 2 physical cores
you should get 4th gen i5 and mobo as u are in budget shortage.... and if you are in dire situation take 2nd or 3rd gen i5 and mobo. there is no difference between 2nd gen vs 6th gen i5 for 1080p gaming with a low end 750Ti... or 260x

or even a low-med 370/950
Lol what a coincidence, he has the same CPU I did. I kind of get how you're feeling, but my advice better to buy a good motherboard and have use for it later. I saw someone selling an i5 3570K with a good board for 18K total

Also FYI dual channel memory is a must, no single channel. Games nowadays don't work well with it
