So I recently got an amd a10 7850k kaveri apu but it developed a fault so I'm going to return it. Should I get a replacement and pair it with an r7 250 in dual graphics or should I just get a refund and use that money to get an athlon x4 760k cpu and pair it with a discrete r7 260x? Both of the graphic cards will have 1gb of gddr5 and the sole purpose of the machine will be gaming.

The 760k / r7 260x duo will perform a lot better.

Not all games are fully using crossfirex setups, which you ill have with an apu+gpu. A cpu+gpu not in crossfire will probably give you better overall performance.
