Cheap Gaming PC

i have been looking to get into pc gaming. i have two builds in mind, one slightly cheaper, but another with more performance. I can live with 30-60 FPS and 1080p resolution. here are the links-https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JimVideogames/saved/#view=JGFP3C - https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JimVideogames/saved/#view=XD38YJ any thoughts?
