Im looking to upgrade my A8-5500. I could either buy the X4 760k Which is basically an a10-6800k without the iGPU, or I could buy my buddys i7-860 and hes going to include the mobo. Which would be the best option to pair with a GTX 760 or R9 270x/7870? Thanks guys!

The core i7 860 is still a good CPU, better than the A10-6800K.
You will be limited to PCI-E 2.0, but this won't affect the performance of any of these video cards.
