Use the Athlon. If you use the A10 the integrated GPU is gonna be basically wasted.

I've heard of Dual Graphics, but wouldnt it apply with the rx 480?

No,the recommend for the A10 by AMD is a 6570 or a 6670

I think that depends on whether your motherboard supports Crossfire. I heard that you can Crossfire your dedicated AMD graphics card with your integrated one but I've never tried myself.
