What do you mean by "low profile" games? CSGO, LoL, rocket league, that type of stuff?

Yeah pretty much. Maybe Tomb Raider.
How much does RAM affect the APU? How much of a difference will it make from (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 and (2x4GB) DDR3 1866?

It will play CSGO, LoL, and Rocket League at somewhat playable FPS at low settings, but tomb raider is a stretch even at all low on 720p. If you haven't bought the processor yet, then I'd highly recommend against buying it. It's meant more for normal desktop use than gaming. 1866MHz RAM might get you an extra 2-4% FPS boost, but it's not going to make up for a lack of GPU power.
