That processor is actually pretty good for the price. Based on the reviews I've read, it's actually better than it's counter part (i3-6100) which costs twice as much. Some people were saying they could run Gears of War 4 on ultra settings with it. You might not get the same results, that person probably has a better graphics card than you plan on getting, but it's still obviously capable of running newer games. However game designers are probably going to start utilizing quad-core processors more often because they are becoming more common. Even so, you might get away with using that processor for the next 3-4 years if you don't mind lowering setting as games become more intensive.
The graphics card seems pretty good. It should run most games on medium-high settings. You may get away with running something like Fallout 4 on ultra settings, but you'll probably get frame spikes because of the sun shafts and stuff (you can always experiment with adjusting the settings). Just be weary about which manufacturer you buy from. Each one has their own overclocking software and cooling systems. Some companies like EVGA build their cards to overclock automatically to about 10% if needed, while others like GIGABYTE leave that decision up to you. Even so, without overclocking that card you should have a decent experience.
Also make sure you have at least 8GB of RAM if you want to play newer games as well, RAM is cheap.
