Hello!i recently made my first gaming pc built ( i havent bought the components) so im pretty new at this! I was searching through other websites for already built pc and i dont know which one should i buy.i have quite a lot of questions. Is it better to buy componets and built it yourself or to buy already built?which graphics card is the best and the worst : EVGA geforce 770 4gb acx dual superclocked, evga geforce 770 sc acx dual bios or sapphire radeon r9 280x 3gb ddr5 dual-x.i like geforce's products more. Which ocomptuer is the best?
This is my built :
CPU Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core $219.00
CPU Cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing $29.98
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 3 ATX LGA1150 $132.99

Case Cooler Master Storm Enforcer ATX Mid Tower $89.99
Power Supply XFX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V $84.99
Optical Drive Samsung SH-224BB DVD/CD Writer

This is my frst built :)

This is first pc i found on webiste :
Hard drive: Toshiba 2TB SATA3 7200RPM
Graphics card : 2x Sapphire R9 280X 3GB DDR5
Cpu: Intel i5-4670K 3.4GHz
Cooler: Titan CPU TTC-NC15TZ/KU/V2
Motherboard: Asus ATX Z87-PLUS
Optical drive: Asus DVD-RW SATA 24x
Ssd : Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" SATA3
Power supply: Silentpower LC1000 1000W
Ram: 2x Kingston 8GB 1600 DDR3 KHX16C9/8
Case: Antec NINE-HUNDRED

I think this one is the best but im not a big fan of graphics cards.is 280x dual-x better than geforce 770 dual superclokced?will i be able to run games on ultra?it has two graphic card which is probably better than the other...

This is the second pc i found:
-motherboard : Asus Z87-PRO
-cpu : Intel i7 4770k
-graphics card : EVGA GTX 770 SC ACX Dual Bios
- ram: Vengeance 2x4GB
-ssd and hdd : 1x (128GB)SSD Samsung 840 evo
1x (250GB)SSD Samsung 840 evo
1x (1TB) WD Hard Disc
-Optical drive : Asus DVD
-power supply: Corsair 750W
-case : Aerocool Strike-X One

I like the graphic card more... It has i7 but i guess you dont actually need that for gaming but its nice to have. And i would buy cpu cooler a well. It has two ssd's.

Which one should i get and WHY or should i buy components and built it myself?whats the difference between dual bios and dual superclocked? I probably missed a lot of qustion hehe.
Thanks a lot!

Suerclocked means it has been overclocked in the factory, so a higher core speed is present in the card, dual bios is let's say you fk up a overclock and your gou has stopped working, you can switch to the second bios which restores it back to its orgional settings, thus making oc safer :) dual 280x is better, way better than single 770 but on 1080p, a 770 will be fi e
Building it your self is more reliable (mostly) and pretty much always cheaper. I think the difference between dual bios and dual superclocked is the superclocked is faster, You don't need a dual card anyway get a single superclocked ACX EVGA GTX 770,

Normally the dual bios is a better card, and can be overclocked even more than the superclocked, as the superclocked version has already been oc'ed to it's near max, whereas the dual bios version has plenty of space. I'd go for the dual bios, any 770 can run games maxed out, but the features on the dual bios version makes it better imo
 
I have a few more qustions, hehe sorry. Which pc is the most futureproof ,the second one? Which one would u buy , i would go for the second one. I've read on forums that 280x dual- x is not reliable and a lot of people had to send it back... Thanks a lot for your replies!!
 


I would go for the second one, but drop the i7 to a i5 and use the money saved on a 780, and yes, nvidia cards tend to need less maintenance
