Viktor's Hex Core functions as a substitute for either Archangel's and Rabadon's, and compared to a conventional build you should be dropping one of those items. Incidentally, Hex Core also synergizes really well with both - stacking the huge AP with the AP amplifier, or the mana with the mana-converter. Most people will probably build all 3, but doing so will mean sacrificing other utility such as Ryali, Void, Liamdry, Zhonya's or DFG/Lich. You will have to decide between hyper-glass or pretending Hex is one of the other two items.
