Im currently planning to upgrade my pc but im thinking which one is the worth upgrade, upgrading my CPU or GPU?
Here are my pc specs:

CPU:a10 6790k APU
GPU:radeon hd 8670d
Ram: 4gb kingston 1600mhz
PSU: evga 700watts
Mobo:Gigabyte fm2

If upgrading for cpu is better I would buy the i5 4460 bundle (plus mobo)

If upgrading for gpu is better I would upgrade my iGPU to gtx 960/660

So which one is worth?
 
Solution
You have an APU so the GPU is integrated into the CPU. So if you change you CPU you will also change your GPU. The 4460 will perform even worse since Intels integrated graphics suck.
Also the 960 and 660 are very different cards so I don't know why you would group them together.

Best thing to do right now would probably be upgrading your GPU for now and upgrading the CPU as soon as possible because it will bottleneck you GPU very heavily. Which could lead to stuttering and an unplayable experience. You would also need to upgrade to at least 8 gb of ram since playing modern games with 4gb is next to impossible.
Also what would you be paying for that 4460 + mobo combo?
