Which pc would give better performance for games?

Overall the Intel system has the better CPU (at stock), PSU and an SSD, while having a worse GPU. Are these prebuilt? While I feel the Ryzen system would probably give more FPS (with a mild CPU OC) but it has a sketchy PSU (which means probably no OC) and not great motherboard which kills upgrade-ability.

yeah they are prebuilt. If I buy parts and then put it all together it cost more here in Croatia. The only way is Amazon and Im not 100% sure in that. Id like to get parts from my town just in case something breaks its easier to fix it or replace with warranty.

I'd agree with you Robax, but only the mobo on the Ryzen build is an A320. So no overclocking. The better GPU (by only about 5-10%) 1060 6gb is almost negated by the higher IPC Intel CPU and will push the gap between the 1060 3gb and 6gb closer. At 1080p the 1060 3gb is still a good performer, just have to dial back the odd setting here and there as the 3gb vram gets filled quickly enough on games like BF1/COD WW2 etc

They look like expensive pre-builts. You can get more power for the same money if you are willing to build the PC.

Understood.

Then if only a choice of the two, i'd go with the Intel system. Specially if you are gaming at 1080p 60hz. Then the i3-810/1060 3gb combo will still get FPS almost identical to the higher specced GPU in the other build. The Ryzen 1200 is a bit behind the 8100 on IPC and clockspeed. Its a bit of a balancing act.
