How about AMD APU Config 1?

^^+1 to this. plus if you want to upgrade later then path will be open to upgarde GPU etc. and in the case of APU there are few drawbacks of Xfire IGPU to another amd card and not all the card will support Xfire with APU. so better to stick with ASHISH65's conf. IMO.

Why cannot we add the Config 2 which has a 4th Gen CPU?

Is this Config not good enough?

Intel Core i3 4130 -8500,
Gigabyte GA-H81M-S1 -4000,
Corsair Vengeance 4GB 1600MHz -2600,
Antec VP450P -3000,
