League of Legends was released in 2009. We list 4 published FPS results for it from Notebookcheck, covering 2 graphics cards. Steam lists Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today. Against those results our estimate landed within ±30% 2 of 4 times.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for League of Legends, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
