If you go thrifty and get Refurbished/Second Hand/Ex-Demo/Older Generation hardware you can get a pretty capable gaming PC incredibly cheap. (Think: $500-$600)
However, what you are asking is for someone to predict the future, no one knows what the hardware requirements of PC games are going to jump up to in 2-3 years time, because to put simply... PC games generally always have better graphics by default and are always improving.
However, with that said, the GPU is the main thing to worry about in a purely gaming PC, any quad core that's got a decent clock speed with 8gb of Ram is fairly capable of running any game you throw at it, provided you don't skimp on the GPU.
And it's not like you can't just lower image quality settings in 3 years time if you don't want to upgrade that GPU either.
