    Hello, Will AMD Radeon HD 8650G graphics with up to 6252MB total graphics memory be able to play these following games:
    Sim City
    The Sims 3 and 4
    Minecraft
    World of Warcraft

    I am not sure if it also depends on other components but the processor is a AMD A10 2.5 GHz

    Thank you all for you help and time

    That's the integrated chip of the richland based apus it has no dedicated vram and uses the system ram. It should be ok for casual gaming. See if the performance of the amd apus is good enough by looking for reviews of the richland chips.

    Hi thanks for your help. I am looking that up right now but not finding info on what games it will be able to run. Are any of the games I listed considered casual games?
