I got an intel core i5 4440 processor
my gpu is an AMD Radeon r9 200 series
i got 8gb of RAM
and windows 8

not sure what other specs you need to know
but i lag while playing csgo h1z1 and LoL and sometimes minecraft
 
Solution
200 series doesn't say much,. cards like the 240 are like $50 and arent for gaming and a 295x is a $900 card that can play any game, so we need more than 200 series.

Your CPU and RAM is fine, but as I said, your card can vary between $50 and $900 depending on the model.
