Neither, both have issues.

Work with build #2. Go Intel. Get the I5-6500. Use the stock Intel cooler - it's perfectly sufficient. Get a less expensive motherboard, an H170 motherboard.

Then, the NEX 650 is a really poor quality PSU (Source). Change it to an FSP Hydro G 650W unit, and you're good to go!

Oh, and 2 sticks of RAM for dual-channel. Get 2133Mhz. Then get a larger SSD.
