The Build I am planning to buy:

Motherboard: Asrock AMDA68H

Processor: AMD A4-7300

Processor Cooler: Zalman CNPS80F

RAM: Kingston 4GB, DDR3 1600 Mhz

Case: mATX ZM-T3

PSU: Deepcool DE530 530W

HDD: 320 GB

Videocard: Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT or GTS

 

And it would be cool if you guys could give me some tips

What's your budget for the build?

[Jurrunio]

Performance is barely enough as long as expectations are kept at a minimum. How much does this cost?

[Princess Luna]

Yes it can play League of Legends at 720p30fps with stuttering.

Aren't those the same thing? your gameplay depends on your graphical performance.

I think the iGPU on the APU is better than the listed video card, I'd look into not bothering or crossfire it with a low end radeon card if you're that stuck.

Eh, any other system at this price? Cuz this thing in the US wont even sell for $70, more like $50. Even if you count in the price difference for everything between the two places, it's still overpriced.

USA is a completely exception to the rule when comes to hardware, every thing will always be more expensive outside USA, these prices are not overpriced to the Bulgaria reality, might suck but that is the world, not every one is fortunate enough to be born in the US.

I already answered you, you can at 720p all low maintaining around 30fps.

Yeah pretty much. If possible use the money to get faster RAM, it will make APU'd GPU part work faster and render more frames.
I've used the 8400 GS and 8800 GTS, they're all kinda shit at this point

Yeah, but $50 vs $150? I've seen people pay twice as much because they dont live in the right place for buying PC hardware, but paying triple is just too much, especially for something this old and slow.

Well the videocard is from my old pc

[HK1]

if your old PC has that GPU don't build a new pc. Just play on the old one and save up to build a new one, at least gather $400-500 or you could get used parts and make it cheaper. I don't thing that card can run LoL properly, it will be like barely - not playable even at 720p like that guy said.

@TeoGFC Just wondering what are your current specs? Maybe it would be better to upgrade your current PC or you can get a second hand PC. Just giving some suggestions.

I'm from Bulgaria, too. Almost a year ago I built a PC for my sister to game on. It has an APU, but is quite good for the price and it costed about 540BGN give or take. If you want I can try to find some better hardware for your budget.

Well to let you know I have decided to buy second hand pc and I found HP Compaq Elite 8100 SFF for 279 BGN so I am good for now

Well I have question tho , so the pc I mentioned does it have good psu or I really need to change it?

Well the PSU is probably proprietary so you won't be able to change it. Though from what I know it should be good quality. It won't be enough for a power-hungry GPU, but for your  GeForce 8600GT or like a GeForce GT1030 it should be enough. But if you'll be using integrated graphics, you don't have to worry about anything.

Don't use the video card and upgrade to an AMD A8 or A10 and it will run much better.  That A4 is useless.  And I am an AMD Solutions Provider/Partner/AMD Fan boy and I would not touch that CPU.  its only single thread per core, dual core, and terrible performing cores, benchmarks put it closer to intel Pentium performance, just with better built in graphics your disabling to install a WORSE video card.  If you going APU get a better one and don't bother with video card.

 

Minus the video card and use the money for a better CPU an this will be much better plus black edition is unlocked:
