AMD A10-7850K Not performing up to stats

[calvindsy]

Hi there!

I recently built a system with the following components, and installed Windows 7. However, when everyone else with similar stats was saying that their system was performing great and could run anything they threw at it, mine can barely run Blacklight: Retribution and Planetside 2 at chunky fps (10-20 at best, at lowest settings possible)
Here's a game debate page--according to this, my computer should be able to run those games with no problem at all.

Stats:
CPU/GPU: AMD A10-7580K 3.7GHZ, 4 cores
RAM: 16GB DDR3 1886mhz
Asus A88XM-A Motherboard
Apevia case w/ included power supply

Any and all suggestions or comments you may have would be great. I'm not necessarily against buying something, but since everyone else seems to have no problem at all I thought I'd check to see if there's something I should do to make it better. Thanks for your time and have an awesome day.

Well the built in GPU barely makes the recommended specs so it can be at fault.

Yes, I did think that could be an issue. Are there any workarounds or ways to dedicate RAM to the graphics portion of the APU?

There would be a BIOS setting to how much is dedicated to it.
