I recommend going for the one without the rgb, unless you're gonna showcase it

Your non-RGB build is a better specced computer compared to your RGB build. It has a better CPU and a motherboard which allows some further upgrade potential. It would probably require a BIOS update to run though.

If you value aesthetics over performance then the RGB build is 'worth it'.

Just be aware, if you get a 2600x with a x370 motherboard, you might need a bios update. Best bet is to get a B450 or x470 motherboard.

will the cpu not work if the bios arent the newest?

is the x370 asus prime pluse better?

You can use rgb fans and leds in your non rgb build if you really want the lighting. The non rgb is definitely the better of the two.
