Is an amd a10 7860k decent for gaming????

[AtomicAdapt]

Could I run most games with respectable frame rates apart from demanding games like GTAV!? I'm buying an amd a10 7860k pc with 16gb of 2400mhz ram and the r7 7860k igpu

This is pretty much what you can expect. I'll let you decide whether it's "decent" or not, because it really depends what games you play.

Thanks!!!. Do you think i would struggle to run Nether on lowest settings 720p. I think this build would be ok for me to be honest because i mostly want to play games like CSGO and Rocket league and similar titles. Thanks for the answer!!!!!

shoudl be alright at medium/low settings

Yes it would work if you are looking to play games that do not have demanding graphics.
I would suggest the AMD FX-6300 Six-Core processor instead because it costs less and it has more performance.

What country are you actually in & how much is the cpu/board/ram total amount you're looking at paying??
There are possibly better options +unless this is a prebuild)

The 7860k will generally net you 40fps+ at 720p low/medium - a lot more on games like csgo though.

another option would be looking at an Athlon X3 845 and a RX 460, which would allow medium/high settings on a lot pf games

I am in UK. Sadly, said pc is prebuilt, as i didn't see much point in building a pc as my budget is really low (£400)

That's all the more reason to pick your own parts at best price and build yourself. The lower the price of the build, the higher percentage of what you pay is spent on assembly when buying a prebuilt.

^That's of course without OS, but easily better spec than a mere 7860k APU, so worth it.
