There is a difference in price where the second one is about 150 USD cheaper, this is good considering I have to buy a keyboard, monitor and operating system. Basically its AMD 6core vs intel quadcore, sorry if there are any mistakes I'm not that good with computers.

The first build is better because of the processor. Intel's Core i5 2500K is far superior to the X6 1055T in everything even only having 4 cores.

Seconded, thirded, and fourthd.

Sandy bridge has a far superior bang per core than the phenom's due, simply because of a vastly improved architecture. Unfortunately, intel owns everyone's hearts right now in our community. Hoping BD provides some competition because I hate just going to intel without a thought.
