You can't overclock with a B150 board AFAIK. I'd get an i5 6500 intead

Current PC: Origin Millennium- i7 5820K @4.0GHz | GTX 980Ti SLI | X99 Deluxe

You cant even get the 2400 mhz ram if you are not getting an overclocking motherboard as it is overlocked ram

well of course the first build is better, because it is more expensive and therefore has better parts.

well this is because my budget is around 1000 dollars

I didn't realize you already have the 970, use that and get a z170 mobo, 16 GB of ram and an SSD. You won't be maxing out every game coming out atm, but you'll still have good quality graphics and you can save up for the gpu upgrade later and have a better build as well
