These builds aren't very future proof! They really won't do much good in editing,they core 2 quad may be faster. I would go with build two if i had too,but you should re-think these builds over,you can build a much better rig at the same price

That is old hardware and I don't think you can get your hands on OCZ Gold RAM anymore. Both use some awful parts as well.

neither build could play any of those games at a playable frame rate.
