Trying to put together a cheapo machine and i'm stuck on what to do for the gpu/cpu

I was thinking one of these options, what would be better over all

7850k for cpu/gpu

or

Pentium G3258 (the unlocked one) + GTX 460 768MB (Which I already have)

The 460 scores ~P3500 in 3Dmark11 and the GPU in the 7850K with the scores ~P2300. So the 460 would be a better option.

Thanks and in regards to gaming what do you think is the better overall combo for the money (taking the respective CPUs in mind)

Assuming you already have the 460, and the CPU is $70, the Pentium is a much better combo. not to mention you will require very high frequency RAM with the APU to get decent performance as the APU uses system RAM for VRAM.
