Can a AMD Radeon R7 250 run League of Legends?

Yes — with compromises

The AMD Radeon R7 250 clears the minimum bar for League of Legends but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 92 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the ultra preset.

Recommended settings

For 60 FPS at 1080p

Use the ultra preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.

At 1440p

Around 57 FPS on high. Playable, but drop to medium or enable upscaling for a stable 60.

At 4K

Around 33 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.

VRAM headroom

At 1GB you are under the 2GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title is unusually CPU-heavy, so it matters more than usual here.
