If I have a GTX 650 will my APU be used instead? Does it take over? Or will they work together? I'm confused.
Also I'm thinking of getting an upgrade to a AMD A-Series A8 3870K 3.0GHz run the latest games ok, as I have socket FM1. :( 

Thanks,
Kieran

As soon as you install a new graphics card, the integrated APU graphics will be disabled (as it is an NVidia GPU) and you will only be running the 650. So yes, the APU will disengage, not work together or take over.
