Compatibility:

I need to be quadruple sure these components are compatible. I know they are myself and I've done a test online but I'd like an opinion on it before I get them. I'll only be listing the CPU, Graphics card and Mother board, I'll list a few other small details and if anything else is needed ask. My PSU is 500W, and my RAM is 8GB DDR3 (just in case).

My Motherboard is:
Gigabyte F2A68HM-HD2
(This is the motherboard I have in my PC, I have a A6-6400k Dual core AMD processor currently installed, and no Graphics card, but I'm looking for upgrades)

These are the CPU and the Graphics Card I plan on getting:

CPU:
AMD A10 7850K Quad Core

Graphics Card:
Gigabyte NVIDIA GTX 750Ti.

I'm sure that they are compatible and that I should be able to install them with no problems but I'd like to be quadruple sure. (This will be the first time I have installed components into a working PC but I'm confident I can do it)

Yes they are compatible. There are 2 versions of that motherboard, rev 1.0 and rev. 1.1. Both are compatible with the A10 7850K with the very first BIOS. The PSU should be fine as long as it isn't some over-rated piece of junk. The GTX 750 Ti only requires a 300W good quality PSU.

But there are far better gfx cards available now than the GTX 750 Ti. The GTX 1050 Ti is much faster than the 750 Ti and can be had for ~$140.
If that is too much, spend less on the CPU. You won't need the built-in iGPU of the APU. Get one of the Athlon X4 8xxK CPUs. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007671%2050001028%20600484725%20600438200&IsNodeId=1&bop=And&Order=PRICED&PageSize=36
Same CPUs as the APU but w/ the iGPU...
