The A10 will work fine with the 650. What happens is that the igpu is automatically disabled and the A10 acts as the Athlon X4 750k. The GTX 650 is much better than the A10's igpu in any case. It seems like a fair enough deal. I would just be suspicious of that PSU, most likely at this price it's a junk unit.

It should run games fine around medium settings.
AMD A10 and a GTX 650.....expect medium performance in new games, from settings varying from medium to high, with antialiasing off, i would like to know the resolution of the monitor, if it is HD (1366x768 or 1280x720) it is going to have a very good performance, if it is FULL HD (1920x1080) then the performance will not be as desired, i have the equivalent of that card in my PC (the HD 7750) and it works very good, i can play any game that has been released until this very moment with medium-high settings.

The CPU worries me a little, so does the motherboard, that CPU socket it is outdated it will be hard to find an upgrade, and the APUs don't perform very good as newer AMD CPUs, you will have to turn the iGPU (internal...) off in the BIOS, 450 is a fair price for this machine, i doubt you can get a 450 dollars PC with 8 gigs of RAM, a 750w PSU, with all those fans, 2 DvDs and a monitor...i would buy it if i had no PC 😀

Cheers 😀
 


Don't think I'll get it
 
I don't think I've ever seen a setup quite like that before:an AMD APU with Radeon graphics inside(and I'm sure the drivers to go with) and an nvidia geforce gtx650 with its own drivers. Well, you certainly can't use both graphics units to run a game at the same time. Having 2 very different sets of graphics drivers installed at the same time could cause serious issues. Technically the geforce is faster, but it really isn't all that fast. One thing to consider is if you want to run any games that take advantage of physx. You could theoretically run the graphics side of things on the APU and the physx on the geforce card.

Also, that power supply is a tad ridiculous for a setup like that unless you plan to crossfire a couple higher end radeons in the future or something like that. Curious about the brand.
