well aside AMD A10 ‑7850K 3.7 is a older generation CPU, the GTX 750Ti is a good base video card, 16MB is very good to run anything you will need, the ssd and large HDD will ensure easy boot and safe storage for games...

250quid isn't a bad price at all, just as a reference, 16GB DDR3 runs about 110, 750ti run about 70, 4tb HDD costs about 100 as well, just with cost components costs you got close to 300$ alone.

I would run some tests on the hard drive to make sure they are stable (chkdsk for example) and Smart HDD.

what games you can play with it, I suggest visiting this web page and run their little applications, it will compare your system versus recommended not minimum hardware needs for each games, it will help you gauge your expectation, before buying games.

well to give you an idea, for a 4core 8thread Amd system you have, its not bad at all. but as you will see on my I5, my score is lower because of crappy drive I have on it., apples to apples you shall compare.

I ran PassMark v9 on my work desktop, I5-4570 @ 3.2ghz, 8GB Ram H81 Board, with a 750Ti video card , 5400 1TB HDD and I get a score of : 2600.08, broken down to CPU 8003.9, 2d Graphics 808.6, 3d Graphics 4281.9, Memory Mark 2413.7 and disk mark 673.4
and
I ran PassMark v9 on my gaming pc, I7-4790K @ 4.4, 32 GB Ram, Z87 Board, with a GTX 970 SSC Video card , SSD and HDD and I scored :5750.7, broken down to CPU 12186.1, 2d Graphics 1084.2 3d Graphics 10034.9 Memory Mark 3135.6 and disk mark 3959.0

so are you score what they should be , ,yes there on the ball
