A10-6800K 8670D + 7750 (Dual Graphics) VS FX-8350 + Nvida 650 ti

Hello all. I'm looking at two different builds here. I have a budget of about $600. (I can squeeze up to $700 if I must. However, I prefer not to.) I already have an OS (W8 Pro if that helps decisions). I'm not too picky when it comes to AMD vs Intel and any comments would be fantastic. I'm interested in some medium-heavy gaming. I use a 1920x1080 monitor, however, I run most of my games in windowed mode around 1024x768. These games consist of the occasional Skyrim, some Torchlight 2, Terarria. Nothing too fancy. I don't care about model quality, however, I want my view distance set a max. I like see the wolf hidden by the tree before I stroll on by it and the model renders. I multitask quite a bit. I'll have the game open on one side of my screen, skype on another, usually 6 browser tabs at a time (Yes, I'm that person.) I am open to rebated items, however, the likelihood of my remembering to fill them out is very low. Please consider normal pricing for the rig and ignoring any rebates unless they are too good to pass up.

I've been looking at parts and DIY bundle deals. I have found two bundle deals similar to the parts I was going to purchase anyways. I have created the pcpartpicker.com groupings of them.

I would say my main question is about the difference between the dual graphics mode using the new options from AMD vs using an older dedicated card with an actual processor. Also, if anyone has an idea for an intel build that blows either of these away I would like hearing about it.

A10-6800k + 7750 Build $580 This is about the price if the parts were bought separately. This includes the price of the PSU below and selling of the corsair ram to a friend of mine.

For some reason the PSU was not in the list for pcpartpicker. So I have listed it here.

Here is my FX-8150 Build.
FX-8150 + GTX 650 Ti Roughly $615

I added in an alternate mobo in that build. I don't particularly care for that uATX board. However, if the public says its fine, I will trust you.

Ram will not be upgraded in the FX build as it will not benefit as much as the APU build does.

My biggest concern with the 8350 was actually the 8 cores it has. I know that, although workable, most applications or games are designed for a dual or quad core structure. I've read that this situation can reduce productivity of the CPU. Does this alter the situation a little? Or, is it still better despite that.

In your budget and according to the reviews, I think getting a FX-6300 (Which is merely $120) and a HD 7850/7870 would be better. GTX 650 ti might be a little bit weak and there is no need of 8 cores in gaming.

I've seen the 7750 for gaming wise . I'm just more curious how it works in the dual graphics setup than a standalone card.

Wrong. 8 cores in gaming would be necessary for good fps when next gen hits. Battlefield 4 uses 8 cores so does crysis 3. With next gen games being created with the idea of the consoles having an 8 core processor the fx 8350 would be the best option. Sure the latest games take advantage of only 4 cores but im talking about 4-5 months down the line when XBOX1 and PS4 come out
