For your mentioned workload, the 1st list is more well balanced and should serve you better.

Can you suggest any upgrade to maximize my budget?

If you just game, prhaps the #2 with a 3300X AMD CPU.

Looks pretty allright to me. Maybe the PSU information can help. If its a cheap PSU, you can improve that. Otherwise any other major performance upgrade can break your budget.

That is a good PSU. No need to change that.

Infact, on second thought, you can get the 2nd build and change the CPU to a 3600 ir 3700x to make it more balanced. ll depends on your location and how much you can sell the 2600 for. But if you do that, make sure that you update the BIOS before getting rid of the CPU.
