Do these specs meet the requirements for good graphic and processor perfomance on a budget for games like Elder Scrolls Online, BF4, and Photoshop/Illustrator?

Screen Size 15.6 inches
Max Screen Resolution 1366x768 pixels
Processor 2.5 GHz AMD Richland A10-5750M
RAM 8 GB DDR3L SDRAM
Hard Drive 750 GB
Graphics Coprocessor AMD Radeon HD 8650G graphics
 
can't play BF4 at low at higher than 30fps, it gets 22 fps which is basically no good.
whats your budget and where are you buying from
 


Thanks, I am looking for a laptop just to provide good enough graphics and performance to hook up via HDMI to my TV and make it a convenient media center (TV tuner/windows media center dvr) and then play some games on. I want to pay under a 1000, hopefully under 800.

For the games, I would like them to work fast and hopefully look good. This is what I found at best buy and the model has a deal on amazon for a free copy of bf4 if you buy it. It is the Envy Sleekbook.
