The better GPU will give you better results,even with the i3 being weaker.
As for future proof,until the next gen of consoles comes up it will play any game very well,after that we will have to see what happens.

With those low performing GPUs the i3 and GTX950 may be better.

thanks for quick reply guys last question
should i bother with an OC version of a 950? is there a huge difference and if there is can i not just overclock the card myself to match up the speeds.

Get a used i5 and a used GTX 950. Both of those are about the minimum you'd want for gaming.
