my son has an a10-5800K system with no dedicated GPU that runs it fine without dumbing the video settings.

At that price, an Athlon II X4 750K, a Radeon 6670 (GDDR5), and dropping down to 4GB of 1600 ram would probably be better for performance. The 6670 is stronger than the A10 and would be more consistent with frame times leading to smoother gameplay.
