I'm trying to get my PC to run games better , like I get a lot of lag on games I mostly have to play on low settings , I tried setting some dedicated ram to the graphics card, but I didn't see any difference . Here are the specs please help:

Processor: AMD A4-6300 APU with Radeon(tm) HD graphics 3.70GHz

Installed ram: 12.0 GB

System type : 64-bit

Adapter : AMD Radeon HD 8370D

The games I like playing :

Borderlands 2 : Alot of lag and play in small window with low graphics

League of legends : Full screen on medium to low graphics

Unturned : Lowest graphics and full screen

Not all the game but just some examples.

A dedicated graphics card will help immensely. For the games you mentioned, a GTX 1050 would let your play those games on high settings.

Before purchasing though, ensure your PSU is powerful enough and your case can fit a graphics card. If you don't know how to check this, just give us the model of your PSU and case and we can find something that will work for you.
Hello,

Your CPU is only a dual-core. Games today like at least 4 cores. Not only that but the integrated graphics isn't that great. You could upgrade your CPU to a quad-core APU such as the A10-7850K. It would play games like Borderlands and LoL better than you A4-6300.

Depending on your budget, you could get an Athlon X4 860K and a better GPU. It's the same CPU as the A10-7850K except without the integrated graphics. You could get more performance with this route, but it would be more expensive.

But it's difficult for me to recommend upgrading to such outdated tech.

Your third, and most expensive option would be to upgrade to a whole new system. This is what I recommend. This would allow you to play all games with good performance and continue to play newer games in the future.

So, it all depends on you budget. Either way your will need to upgrade some hardware.

I didn't think of that. Other games would bottleneck. But he could play those games he mentioned a lot better.
