Hi, I wanted to build an inexpensive pc that would be used mostly by playing dota 2 or just watching movies, here's the build that I thought off, any suggestions would be appreciated thanks

CPU: A10 7860k 3.6ghz
MoBo: MSI A88xm - E35 v2
HDD: Wd Blue 1 tb
RAM: Kingston 8gb 1600mhz hyperx fury blue
PSU: fsp raider 650w 80+ silver (reason for this is i am considering buying a gpu in the future) any alternatives would br awesome
Casing: Aerocool gt-r black casing

with this setup would i be able to play dota 2? if yes what could be the possible setting, and i was planning to use windows 10 as well, again .. thanks!
 
An i3 6100 is priced similarly. Its integrated GPU performance is usually ~80% as well as the A10's, while its CPU performance is often a lot better, and would be a much better option if you ever add a discrete GPU.

For what it's worth, an i3 6100 + GTX 1060 draw less than 180w together, so unless it's the same price, there's no reason to get a 650w power supply.
