Would it make a huge difference?

[l0lter]

So I've been planing my build for a long time now and I can finally aford it. But prices of lots of the parts have been shifting quite a lot so I came up with a better one and I wanted to ask you guys if the difference will be noticable. I will mainly be playing League of Legends, CS:GO and streaming but I like to check out the new games that come out aswell.

 

Here is the first one: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hPMkrH

 

Here is the second one: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/7wwFLk

 

Note: This 45$ difference that you are seeing here is actually 85$ where I live(Bulgaria), which is 150 of our curency which is not a small amount, knowing that the avarege monthly payment here is 400.

Edit: I already have the case. It's the Zalman R1.

buy the 280 3gb more vram and the speeds are about the same

Personally, I would go for the first build, since you don't need that high clocked RAM or that big of an improvement in gpu. What do you plan to do with your build?

Nearly nothing, the only change you made was the Gpu ( i know you also changed the ram but it's still 8gb) it's your call if you wan't Amd or Nvidia, oh and if you will go with AMd route please take a new 300 series not a old one !

(Would choose a better PSU, CX series isn't great.

What about the CPUs? Would there be any noticable change?

4460 vs 4590 is barely a noticeable difference. If you have the money, "moar is bettar".

4460 does suffice very nicely.

Higher than 1600 DDR3 memory makes no sense - both CPU's max out at 1600 MHz.

 

You may want the 960 over the 280 because of CUDA shadowplay.

Choose this one, i would say go with a 8gb kit of Kingston HyperX ram for $10 more, in place of the ADATA 4gb kit to make the build a more balanced build, and allow for more ram capacity in the long run.
