Here is a YouTube video of WoW running on a E-350, HD6310 and 4GB RAM (different ingame graphic settings): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIsi864c-is

I've also searched for some benchmarks with Google. Depending on the game, you need around 40 to 80 FPS to be able to play a game fluently. According to those benchmarks, it's almost impossible to reach this performance while playing relatively new games (Modern Warfare 2, Starcraft 2, Fallout 3, etc.)

Depends on what you are looking for... but £330 is approximately the common price for this hardware.

Edit: Here's a nice benchmark overview. Your HD6310 is mostly about 25% worse than the 5450.
