from what i can see the G4560 isn't a very good cpu. So long as your games are mostly cpu light and more weighted on the gpu then it'll be ok. But don't expect the system to be able to run any game after the upgrade.

It's compatible, though the PSU itself is no good because of parts that dont last long. https://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&file=print&reid=384 (noted as not so well performing by standards 4 years ago). You'll need a new one when the 3 year warranty is about to expire.
