Hello, just as title said will i be able to play popular games on this APU like CS GO,WoT,War Thunder..Im getting A10 6700,motherboard and 4GB of Ram for 120e and i think thats a solid deal.Let me know what you think.
Looking for 720p resolution,nothing above because i dont have full hd monitor yet.

You should be fine. However do get at least 8gb of ram total because the apu uses a bit off your ram as video memory.

Is it fine to use 1600mhz RAM or even 1333mhz ram?Or should I save up little longer for 1866mhz ram?Will i see a big difference because i heard that APU needs a fast RAM

I agree with jaslion. I am using an intel i5 3210m, with intel HD 4000 graphics. I play warthunder on 768p on low and get okay fps.

Your graphics is more powerful than mine and your resolution is lower, so it will do warthunder pretty well.
Make sure you have 2 RAM sticks so it operates in dual-channel mode.
I agree that 8GB is necessary.
 


Whats the speed off the 4gb stick? I always recommend to at least get the 1600mhz ddr3 for apu's a bit higher never hurts it.

1600 cas 9
or
1866 cas 9

In this case, if the 1866 is just a little more than the 1600, it's worth it.
If the 1866 has a higher cas, it is not worth it.
Higher frequency is good. Higher cas is bad.

I would not buy his ram and choose to buy a dual-channel set of 8gb. (2 X 4GB)
