Title says it all. Which would yield better performance?

Prices are pretty much the same here in Canada for the CPU/GPU combo

Spend the extra $10 and get this http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/SacI

Ok but that doesn't answer my question on which performs better. That display seems fishy and more $$$ is needed for at least an extra case fan. Finally, that motherboard only support DDR3 1333+ (O.C.)/1066, NOT 1600.

Crossfire is a pain in the ass and dosent like working on some games the dedicated HD 7770 will be a better pick

1333+ so it will take 1600 you just clock it up in the bios (worth noteing The amd phenom is native to 1333Mhz to)

So this is the only benchmark I came across that compared these two on similar games

The a10 is running WOW on "good settings" with no aa, and the 7770 is running on Ultra with no aa and still achieving 15fps more at 1920x1080. 

** Edit - See here for direct comparison. You should get better FPS using the x4 with the 7770 instead of the a10 with the 7770

Also, anything requiring cpu power, like Skyrim, will eat the a10 alive.
