My friend wants a computer that is able to play LoL without any problems. Nothing to special hence the lowish budget.
Is anyone able to find the cheapest parts for this?
He would like Windows 7
He does not need a monitor mouse or keyboard.
Can anyone help? Many thanks.
AMD A Series
Any supporting MicroATX, Hudson D3 preferably.
4 GB RAM (1333 Mhz +?)
Everything else doesn't really matter. He can get anything else and still get the performance he requires with the above three mentioned parts.
EDIT:
Here is something I put together: $527 (Subtract $40 from that because there is a mail in rebate on the case and psu. So it's just $487.)
I think there is a coupon too for one or two of the items.

If you need a media drive, just pick something cheap as they are rarely used in this time & age:

You might need a sata cable for the OEM hard drive: (Most OEM items don't come with one.)

Note that I picked the best APU on the market. It's $150 and not only will your friend be able to play LoL at 60+ fps on max settings but he will also be able to play other, more intensive, top graphic games at enjoyable settings.

You didn't put a video card in there

The AMD Processors is an APU and features a HD 8670D
Problems I have with that build:
-600 Watt PSU is way to much get a cheaper 430 watt one.
-Microatx board in a case made for ATX boards.
-Microatx boards are usually pretty shitty compared to their ATX counterparts.
-Intel i3 or an AMD fx 6300 cpu with a seperate dedicated GPU will[U][B] probably[/B][/U] outperform this.
That also doesn't have the operating system factored in

No Win 8?

He doesn't want Win 8
I recently completed my own PC, but mine was very cheap. The MoBo, 2gb DDR3 RAM, and CPU I brought off a friend for pretty cheap. Here is the Graphics card I brought, which works pretty well for me, as well as the case/power supply combo. I also got a Kingston value 4GB DDR3 RAM. I needed a new PC, I don't make a lot of money, so I went cheap, and built a rather nice PC for the price.

AMD HD 7850 nice GPU will play almost any game full graphics, plus AMD built in graphic would play LoL at full graphics but I'd 100% spend the extra cash on a GPU and the 7850 is spot of for what you want or you could go for a 650Ti which isn't as good but still low in price and would sort you right out.
Just to say, I have a surface pro laptop/tablet which Intel HD 4000 graphics built into the motherboard and that runs LoL fine but can be a bit laggy at times.

Oh and OS if I was you id go with windows 7 and just get a crack for it, that's what I did and I saved myself £100+ and have never had an issue with it
500GB Caviar Blue HDD
HD 7770 GPU
AMD FX-6300 (Six-Core) 3.5 GHz

If you're going to make an APU build and intend on using the integrated GPU, you need to get the fastest memory supported by the processor for maximum video performance. In this case, either DDR3-1600 or DDR3-1866 with the lowest CAS latency you can find. It also helps to have at least 8 GB because the GPU is going to be robbing system RAM.
