Will I lose FPS with a Radeon R9 290 with a AMD A10-6700?

I already have the R9 290 and just purchased a pre-built HP Envy 700 with the AMD A10-6700. I put a SolidGear Neutron 750W PSU in the box for the GPU

Will you lose FPS? Well you certainly wont be getting as many as you would with say a highly overclocked 8350 or an Intel i5-4670K but youll still get good performance. Thats a midrange CPU at best but a high end video card so you will be choking off some performance as that chip wont be fast enough to feed 290 so that it can really stretch its legs.
