£411 shipped with 860K and Geforce GTX750 Ti instead. Excludes a keyboard and mouse, and a bit larger, but I didn't really look around at cases and PSUs, and it lacks Wifi.

Is graphics card built into motherboard?
There are quite a few AMD A10 7850k base units on ebay that are under £300, how does this compare to those as I am in the market for a similar system.

Not too sure I presumed it wouldn't be as it says dedicated...
I find it hard to vote on this one as is. The A10 7800 comes with integrated graphics; in that the computer comes with a graphics card, why not use a 860K, instead of the A10 7800, the 860K being more or less analogous to a A10 7800 but without the integrated graphics, saving £43. I don't know how much the AMD A5 330 cost as it's an OEM part but let's say £35? You could spend that money on a GTX 750TI. Only very slightly more cost but with much better performance.
You can use dual-GPU mode to use both the integrated and discrete GPUs, however the R7 240 is not recommended for this CPU, the R7 250 is, although there isn't that much difference between the two (240 is about 80% of a 250, and bother are rather slow): http://www.amd.com/en-us/innovations/software-technologies/dual-graphics
Opening post
processor benchmarks at 5175, decent ram, ssd to run windows and 1tb hdd for movies, separate graphics card too.
can't find any but there must be a very discount voucher about too there always is?!
thoughts ??

The GPU (R5 330) is the same as the R5/R7 240 GPU (R5 vs R7 seems to be slightly different clock speeds but same GPU core).

This review of the 7670K also shows the impact of dual graphics in gaming performance with the same level of GPU:
