I recently bought an HP Compaq 6005 pro sff with 8gb ram, and 500gb storage. Now that's good and all, but the cpu is garbage. It's an AMD Athlon 2 x4 610e. I have no GPU, and am wondering does my motherboard have intigrated graphics on it? Or is it the cpu? I have an am3 socket.

AM3 CPUs have no integrated graphics. Some lower end AM3 boards will have an IGP on them, usually a Radeon HD 3100/4200/4250. It looks like your HP has the Radeon HD 4200 IGP on the motherboard. If you want to upgrade the CPU you can, though you may be restricted based on what sort of BIOS support HP offers, you'd have to check their CPU support list and see what your options are.
