Is the amd A-10 7890k or the Amd athlon x4 880k better with the gtx 1050. (Which one does less bottlenecking)-for CSGO
 
Solution
If you are already stuck in the FM2 hole then go with the 880k since you are getting a 1050 ti as the A10 will provide you no improvement at all.

If not already in the FM2 hole then avoid avoid avoid. That 880k can not keep up with a 2014 core i3 cpu and that is the "best" cpu you can get.
A pentium g4560 + b250 board + 8GB ddr4 memory will be much better today and have an actually upgrade path for the future for around $200 USD.

I have done around 20 Mins of research with those 2 Cpu's, and there isn't any difference. ( Much )

http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-Athlon-X4-880K-vs-AMD-A10-7890K-APU/m121029vsm118648

That shows you that the Athlon is cheaper, but has no APU, which is fine.

In my opinion, go with the Athlon, it'll provide less bottlenecks.

If you want to go pretty much budget, get the Intel Pentium G4560, that CPU Can handle a GTX 1050 Ti with minimal bottlenecks for around $65 in the US or £50 in the UK.

Hopefully this answers your question.
