I have AMD A10 6800k and my GPU is Nvidia GT 630 GB, obviously I cannot crossfire this. Do you have any suggestion if this build is better when it comes to Gaming? Is GT 630 2gb better than the onboard APU of A10 6800k? Should I buy a HD 7750 to dual graphics with my processor?

radeon hd 7750 with 1GB GDDR5 vram would be better as the primary discreet graphics card. however, i've been seeing radeon hd 7770, radeon r7 250x (same gpu as 7770), radeon hd 7790, radeon r7 260x(same gpu as 7790) prices pretty close to 7750 prices lately. if you could affor any of those, would be better for gaming.
edit: radeon hd 7750 cannot dual graphics (crossfire) with a10 6800k. the highest amd allows is radeon hd 6670.

So the iGPU of my proc is better than my Gfx card? If I can only find someone to swap my GT 630 for a HD 6670. I'm also planning in getting additional 4GB DDR3 1600mhz RAM on top of my 2GB DDR3 1600mhz right now, so I can have 6GB ram, sounds good? The thing I don't like about ATI GFX card is there lack of Digital Vibrance of Nvidia.

don't bother with crossfiring 6670 with the apu, get a powerful discreet gfx card and use it as primary. dual gfx i.e. cfxing 6670 with the apu is highly driver and software dependent and doesn't usually receive the best of support (even though it deserves).

The r7 260x should be a pretty solid budget card for your APU. CF with the APU would only be a suitable option if your budget is really really limited. The 260x will perform a lot better in general. You might want to consider selling the APU/MB online and buy a better separate CPU+MB later on (fx 6300 is a very well performing budget CPU which you can OC heavily).
