Okay so like I said in the thread title I've got two builds here that I want peoples opinion on. To be specific I'd love to get peoples opinion on which of the two I should get, and on any changes that you think I should make. I should also mention that I have a $1500 budget with about a $100 worth of breathing room in case it goes over $1500, and that I'm looking to run my pc at 1440p. As for why one build uses Ryzen 5 and the other Ryzen 7; I just wanted to see how far I could take my pc while staying in my budget. So to be clear I'm more than willing to go back to Ryzen 5, if it's more beneficial for me. Oh this is also my first time ever building a pc.
Okay this is the first build which someone put together for me: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/64CR6r
This is the second one that I put together myself; just to see what I could do after deep diving into pc building the past few days: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4MRrXy
