Which Build Is The Best

[Murdersaurus]

So I've been planning to make a build for a while and I got some of my friends to help me with the parts (I'm not very good at picking parts) and I was wondering which one is the best. I'm planning to use this pc mainly for gaming and the budget is around $1500 (I already have my peripherals). Here are the builds:

3.http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/Cc2cnQ

4.http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/VDDg7P

 

Also if these builds aren't good and you think you can make a better one, please do.

Dont SLI or CrossFire both the 960 or the 380, not worth it.

this one, change the 970 to r9 390 please

 

And change that SSD to samsung 850 EVO. Kingston v300 SSD's are crap.

OP doesn't need a 980 though.

[TastySteaak]

Since I created the second build, do I get a cookie?

Anyways, I have made the changes and put in an R9 390 as well as an 850 EVO.

umm why not

[TastySteaak]

umm why not

OP won't be playing lots of really intensive games or doing any heavy editing or anything so why would he need to spend the extra money on a card he won't need?

OP is only going to be using this for games like CS:GO, LoL, Evolve and possibly GTA V. Like I said, the 980 is not needed.

umm no

first you don't know what hes gonna be playing

a and 2..you don't know what he will be playing the future

you always get the best gpu you can afford for your budget

Tbh I would like a 980 because I don't know what games and things I'm going to do with my pc in the future so I'd rather have a better one now and not have to upgrade later
