I'm not very informed when it comes to upgrades and such especially APUs, so I hope I can get some help. And hopefully not making a completely fool of myself getting things wrong. In 2013 a friend of mine bought a computer, he ended up putting it away in storage for a while and pulled it back out, he wants to play games on it such as, league of legends, Diablo 3, and such. It has an apu,
AMD A4-3300 Llano Dual-Core 2.5 GHz Socket FM1 65W AD3300OJHXBOX Desktop APU (CPU + GPU) with DirectX 11 Graphic AMD Radeon HD 6410D

And the motherboard is

GIGABYTE GA-A55M-DS2 FM1 AMD A55 (Hudson D2) Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

The case has plenty of room for a bigger mother board, I'm just my not sure how he should upgrade this. I have an old nvidia gt 440 that I'm willing to let him use, so I was thinking he could get a new mother board and a cpu, with my old video card? If so could I get suggestions of a decent priced motherboard and processor?
