The A10 7890K on socket FM2+ is the best option for the time being, however, by the end of the year, Raven Ridge will come to AM4, so I would just wait for that if you really want an APU.
 


yeah the g4560 trumps the a series, unfortunately for those bulding a 350-400 bucks budget buid for light to medium gaming, the a series holds the best perf/dollar coz of its built in igpu.

A G4560 + gtx 1050 would cost about $50 more than an A10 7890k system using the igpu but that extra $50 is well worth it if you want to game.

If it was a hard $400 budget then I'd still suggest the Pentium and then look for a used 750ti or 950 as they can usually be found for $50-75. The FM2+ is just not a good investment. And really at a budget less than $400 I'd likely suggest looking at a console if gaming was the primary goal.

Instead, is it worth to buy 1. A8-7410 with R5 m430 integrated and 2gb graphics dedicated or
2. A10-9600P with R5 m430 integrated and R7 m440 2gb graphics dedicated?

Mid range gaming and I use virtual box. The problem is I heard that a10-9600p heats a lot while gaming
 
nVidia's discrete GPUs are much more power efficient than AMD's, so effectively you get a lot more performance in the same power envelope by going with an NV chip. This isn't brand bias, just the facts. AMD is hurting really badly in mobile, even more than in desktop.
