If I want a system unit that can play recently released games even at low to mid res. at decent fps (more than 20), what are the minimum specs that I should be looking for?

What's your budget?

[K i a r a]

Decent FPS is not 20dps..

 

But like what he said ^ 
It depends on your budget, You can play alot of games at the 30fps you are looking for with most CPUs.

New releaced indie games? AAA titles? VR games?

trust me. when you've played games at less than 10 fps, 20 fps will feel like heaven.

Do you already have any parts you might be able to reuse or is this a completely new build? Do you have a monitor?

used then, get an old prebuilt and add a 1050TI, SSD and maybe a new HDD.

Or if you can find one thats semi stander get a rx570/880 or 1060 6gb and an SSD+ maybe HDD.

look for 2-4th gen i5s and i7. you could also look at workstations on LGA 1366 or 2011

As the guy above said, you'll have to look at used parts and whatnot. Try to find a decent deal on a used PC because it'll have most of what you need and then you can save up for parts in the future or upgrade with a new gpu if you have the money left.

what if I want an AMD processor instead of an Intel one? what AMD cpu would be decent enough for gaming?

an fx 6--- or 8--- or maybe a pheono x6 for used, don't buy any of these new.

If you want a new CPU+mobo which forces ram AMDs 2200G, this would be about the best https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bRyDxG

I would be wary of buying from Lazada. I myself is a business owner who sells in Lazada. 90% of the products here has a non-existent warranty. Lazada will only help you replace your product 7 days after delivery. After which, you're on your own. You have to find your own way to contact the seller, and hope that they assist you.

 

Here's something from a reputable store.

 

It has better peripherals, 8gb dual channel RAM (instead of the 4gb from Lazada), and has real warranty. You just have to get yourself a hard drive which costs PHP 2,200 for 1tb. The Lazada one only has 500gb.
