I am about to upgrade my PC soon or later and I am wondering if the my Motherboard is compatible with the A10-6700 or 10-6800K and GTX 750ti. Also, I would like to know if I have enough powersupply to use these parts.

My Specs
Motherboard- MSI-2AE0
Powersupply- cooler master elite 400w
RAM- 6GB DDR3 1600MHz
APU- A8-5500
GPU- Radeon HD 6750 1GB GDDR5
Hard Drive- 1TB Harddrive(I think its Westren Digital)
OS- Windows 8.1

Your MOBO has a PCI X16 slot, so it will work. I would get a little more CPU power, but in that regard you are ok. However, you will need a new PSU for a card like that. At least 650W would be good if you would ever want to upgrade again.

Yes they are both compatible, but you're on the borderline I think with that psu since it is the lowest recommended wattage for the 750ti. The amd apu's also have a higher tdp than intel's. My 6800k states 100w but can use as much as 130w fyi. You'll probably be fine with the 400w, but you may find yourself in trouble when you start plugging in usb components or adding fans to your build even if they don't draw much power. I would recommend a 500w bronze or higher for piece of mind.
