Was wondering between these 2 Builds which would be better for 1080p Gaming

CPU- AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core Processor
Motherboard- Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Memory- Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage- Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card- XFX Radeon R9 285 2GB Double Dissipation Video Card
Power Supply- Thermaltake 750W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Case- Corsair SPEC-03 White ATX Mid Tower Case?

Or:

CPU-AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
RAM-G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB
GPU-MSI Radeon R9 280 3GB
Motherboard-Asus M5A97 R2.0
Storage-Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB
Case-Cooler Master HAF 912
DVD Drive- Black SATA 24X DVD Burner
PSU-SeaSonic S12II 620W
 


And the 1st build has a much nicer PSU, so there's that aswell lol
