(second one)

anyhow, I'd recommended either swapping or saving up for a gtx 970 over the 960, it'll be better in the future.

Yeah I'll have to save up to afford the gtx 970.

yeah, it'll be like $100 or 100 euros more. But the 970 will be more better in the future run over a 960, also you could drop around $30-60 on a 128gb SSD to run your operating system on.

If you're gaming/rendering/etc, you'd want your OS on a SSD and other games/other stuff on your normal hard drive.

Ok thanks for the information

AMD A10-7870K + GTX 960 is better.

The GTX 960 will bottleneck the AMD FX-6300


for extra $5 you could get a 4GB variant Strix

Haha this made me laugh man

I'd say the second one's better, But like Xiggy said it all depends on what your wanting to use it for.

To be honest both builds could be better for the price they come to.

Like Xiggy said what are these build going to be used for?

Now lets make this a little bit easier.. :2thumbsup:

What is your budget and currency? (Pound sign does not work normally, use GBP abbreviation)
Do you need a monitor?
Do you need a keyboard?
Do you need a mouse?
Do you need an operating system?
What will you use the PC for?

This is what i'd take instead for the money: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Much better CPU on a up to date platform, DDR4 memory too. The case is tried and tested by members here and is solid and the PSU on this build is actually decent compared with the one on the second build which could be dangerous. Also the GPU on this build is better too.
