There is no "best" version. The standard window 8.1 is fine to use.
Only certain people need the extra features of 8.1 Pro. For gaming, you don't need 8.1 Pro.

I personally use Windows 8.1 Pro, because I don't just game on my PC, and I like some of the features of 8.1 Pro. If you're just gaming, then I think you'll be just fine with regular Windows 8.1.

The regular Windows 8.1 is enough for a gaming PC, but Windows 8.1 Pro has some awesome features but still, not the features that you'll need at gaming.

So.. If I was you, I would pick the regular one.

Pro allows data encryption and also allows you to use Hyper-V to create virtual machines. I prefer using Vmware Player Hyper-V where I have Windows 10 technical Preview as a VM.
