Of course it needs a GPU but otherwise it should be decent.

2200g is an APU

 

OP, imo you should look used for some parts like the case, otherwise it looks okay for what you have

I gpu is out of my budget, and people keep on recommending the r3 2200g.

 

It is REALLY difficult to find a new PC for AUD$500 (including shipping) with a dedicated graphics card.

Ah, so you'll have to settle for old school emulators until you can afford a video card!

But the 2200g is an apu

 

It can get 100+ frames on some games at 720p low settings.

 

Emulator? Nah

New games? Yah

2200g can easily run AAA games.

True, but easier than any other APU can- aside from the 2400g
