help me pick between two different gaming pc builds

[fandongames]

I have narrowed my choice down to two pc builds now http://pcpartpicker.com/p/kcDpD3 and http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/partlist/ With the first one id still need an optical drive and an os so Id have to cut back on like the ram or something but If I need to change anything majorly in either of them let me know. Money is'nt the biggest problem but between 1650 and on will be hard for me to do

i ve added some overclocking ability for the future and picked i5 4670K instead 4690K , just to ensure the CPU is supported without the need of BIOS update.
