Just what happens in open discussions.

https://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/pc-problems/ and your other posts seem fine to me but I do run into folk that make DEMANDS and often get no discussion replies.

The review of your CPU with it's integrated graphics looks to be at https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/Ryzen_3_2200G_Vega_8/

Frankly I'm not impressed and would not buy if you want to play games.

Forget that APU and look instead to gamer builds at https://www.reddit.com/r/PCMasterRace/wiki/builds

https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-RX-Vega-8-GPU-Benchmarks-and-Specs.260180.0.html blasts this solution as well with LOW settings on many games and any gamer I know would be upset at the solution.

2200g

Starting a discussion with 'don't waste my time with answers I don't want to see' is a good way to get no answers at all.

You can play any game you want with that apu.

The question becomes what game features you want to enable and what fps you expect.

As for ram the vega 8 does not have ram it uses system ram.

For that reason you should change your ram to 2X8GB to enable dual channel.

For Bulgaria
Mar 20, 2018 11:23AM PDT

I think you have to find discussion boards in Bulgaria unless a member happens to respond here.

But your discussion title didn't mention Bulgaria so the chances of that are slim to none.

All that aside, the cheap gamers I see worldwide tend to always be builds from https://www.reddit.com/r/PCMasterRace/wiki/builds or very very close to what's there.

ALL THAT ASIDE. REALLY PUT ALL THAT ASIDE and share what you have now. Sometimes I encounter a gamer on a budget and all they needed was a good video card (nod to the Nvidia 1050 Ti) and they are good to go. Again, too often they think they need an entirely new PC.
