I agree with Tiny Voices. An APU is for systems that won't get a discrete graphics card. They make decent family or kids' PCs that will do some of everything, but don't need to do anything extremely well.
Fill out the template in the sticky on how to ask for new build advice in order to get the best, most relevant suggestions that take into account your budget and what you want to do with this PC.

Tiny is correct. At this point in time, if you're buying a full system and want a discrete card, buy a dedicated CPU.

If you already had an APU, and wanted to upgrade the graphics, that would be fine. Since you're buying both, you're better of with a dedicated CPU. Once AMD's frame metering implementation matures, "dual graphics", i.e. combining an APU with a GPU will be good.
