Used PCs

A OR B?

I live in Norway. I can get A for $970 and B for $1033. The prices here are different here, so that is probably "overpriced" in America.

Depends, what are you going to do with these computers?

B would be better for Gaming, More Vram.
And A would be better for editing/server hosting, Hyperthreading, And 16gb RAM.

A is the better computer. The only thing B has going for it is the cheaper price, the better cooler (not super important with these low power 80W CPUs), and the SSD. I'd pick A if it were me.

Yeah, I am not sure what I will be doing at the moment.. I currently play like League of Legends etc. I'm thinking of live streaming as well. Would you guys say the 780Ti is outdated tho? Is it better then the 970 btw? 

 

And the motherboards. The A has a z87 and B has a z97. Is the A one outdated then? The A build is a bit older too, but would that be a better PC overall?

[NoMooreMercy]

If it were me, I'd buy computer B.

The 780 TI is better than the GTX 970, except the GTX 970 has 0.5 GB more VRAM, which usually wont come into play at 1080p. The A one is older, but only by a tiny bit and it still performs basically better than B in every way except for the SSD.
