A r7 265 will work fine with your computer assuming your power supply is adequate.

I recommend getting the best AMD card that you can crossfire with your A10 7850K. The best card I can find so far is the HD 7750/R7 250 card (whatever is cheaper of the two... a used card is definitely cheaper if you're on a very tight budget).

What do you plan to do with your computer like what games will you run and at what settings?
Also, what are the speed of your RAM sticks since APUs perform better with faster RAM since it uses the RAM as part of the video memory.

You're better off getting a better CPU and a dedicated graphics card instead of an APU but if you do not have the money to get a completely new computer build, then crossfiring will have to do and is somewhat decent.

I do not recommend crossfiring with your 7850k. From past experience there is lots of micro-stuttering and issues. Overall, not a pleasant experience. A 265 will be much more powerful than the APU, and even going up to an R9 270x would be fine for your processor to handle. Unfortunately, unless you plan on using the integrated graphics on the APU, it's a very expensive proposition.
