Also, on cyberpowerpc.com u can purchase pc's that are water cooled and has lights and a fancy case for less than the cost of this build. Should purchase the parts from pcpicker and build this myself or buy an already build pc that looks alot better from their website for less?

here's a link to the pc I was thinking about purchasing?

Well cyberpower pc have a better core, will make a performance in gaming ,but not a big difference with the first build.

Also, the main difference between both buils are the GPU, first link comes with GTX 980ti, and second one with a R9 390x.

Assuming you're going to play @ 1440p, both cards will do the job fine, and for future, you can crossfire the second system without getting a new power supply.

Its your choice, but for me, i would go for second one.

Not a fair comparison considering the cost and performance difference between the 390X and 980 Ti. And what's more important, looks, performance, quality of parts used? You can build a system that will have superior performance than the pre built and still have money left over. Lights and a fancy case don't give you more frames per second.
