hi i want help is it worth it to buy an amd a8 5400k if you have an gtx750 ti (overclocked at 1300 MHz ) or suld i go for the A6 7400k?

Don't waste your money on an APU if you're going to have a video card installed.  I'd go with the Athlon X4 860k instead.

QUOTE ME OR I PROBABLY WON'T SEE YOUR RESPONSE

neither :) do you already have the motherboard? or are you buying that too

 

the 760k or 860k as @alby800 mentioned would be better

Im ordering at a site called inet.se My budget is about 200 bux

the units on this site are not ''bux'' they are ''kr'' so how many ''KR'' are you willing to invest in that?

wouldnt an athlon 860K be a better choice than this APU if we consider the op has a GTX750ti GPU?

Not available and this seems to be at a good price. 5600K is effectively a 760K
