Hello,
im from Germany, so dont hate me for my bad english.
I wanted to ask you, which combination is better for Gaming.
Especially Games like Sims, COD, LoL. No Blockbuster Games.

Cheers

bit of a hard choice to be honest. the 280x will give you more raw fps in a lot of games but will stumble on games that require 4 true cpu cores.
me i would go with the 4460 and the 280 as its a more versatile setup for the things i do (3d renders and so on).
but the games you mention the i3/280x would be just as good if not slightly better for overall fps on them games.
