Alright, So I build an Intel build and an AMD build and I was wondering which one I should go with.

This rig will be used primarily for gaming and not much for anything else.
If it helps at all, I will probably be playing mostly counter strike go

anyways if you have any suggestions to improve these builds, I would greatly appreciate it.

Its basically the same build except different cpus

its tough to say because the only differences are the processors. intel chips perform way better than amd chips but the amd chip has 4 more cores than the intel chip. you might get more out of the intel build. i5's are great processors
 
Almost at the AMD's build price
