how does the onboard HD7000 GPU of a AMD upgrade kit i am looking at compare to my old 8500GT card?

I am looking at upgrading my current geriatric P4 system. I saw this upgrade set with a gigabyte F2A75M mobo plus memory plus AMD A10-5800K CPU. Appearantly it had onboard graphics on that CPU listed as HD 7000 but without any specs such as RAMDAC, memory speed and that kind of thing.

Due to financial constraints i will have to wait with upgrading my GPU so i am forced to use that NVIDIA 8500GT i have now for awhile longer or use the onboard thing if its any better.

Anybody can give me the comparison and specs on this?

The A10-5800k has the HD7660D GPU. More than twice the power of the 8500GT. Heck the 8500GT is so crap it can't even run 2006 games on a 1280x1024 resolution with decent settings whereas the a-10 APU is great in that department it can even run BF3 on playable settings
