250-300$ budget gaming build ?

its basically down to i3 6300 vs a10 7850k with no discrete graphics card
and hunting for a good deal on one later
i cant find benchmarks of the APU's ... witch one is better ?

Just go with the 7850k and OC it. Decent processor and it is more or less a quad core as opposed to the i3 which may alleviate problems in the future.

Far cry 4 doesn't run on HyperThreaded dual cores, so it's already a thing.
The 7580k is a nice little APU for 1080p gaming at medium settings and since it's GCN it has support for DX12 and vulkan.

Far Cry 4 will run on anything that has a minimum of 3 cores. Whether those cores be logical of physical. Only dual cores (With no extra logical cores) are an issue.

i heard of that myth about 4 cores only games
as programmer in python programming parallel routines (multi thread capable program) theirs no difference between a thread and a core to the software
honestly my educated bet about hyper threading not "real" multi threading
is a myth it is as real to the software as running virtual machine with 32 cores
on a 1 core machine .... 32 threaded programs will run on that VM ...

Kilbane is right though, FarCry 4 will not run on anything less than 4 physical cores so it's not a myth. There has been hack fixes to allow it to do so but that causes game engine instability and at times made the game unplayable.
