Hi guys I'm building a couple gaming Pcs for $200 for some friends to try an get them into pc gaming so far i have 2 systems for them but i want to give the "better" one to my friend Myles because I've known him longest and his birthday is soon so my question is which pc would perform better in games like battlegrounds, Warcraft, rb6 siege 

 

1st pc 

Cpu: i5 3470

Gpu: r9 270x 2gb

10gb ddr3 ram

 

2nd pc 

Cpu : amd fx 6120

gpu: rx460 2gb

8gb ddr3 ram

 

 

Also would these pcs be fine on these games? The only one that worries me is the fx6120

The 1st PC has a much better CPU, and It's already really good, but the GPU is very meh, and gets beaten by the RX 460 easily.

if you could, maybe try doing what @MrDrWho13 said, and putting an RX 460 into the 1st PC, or trying to find a used R9 280 or GTX 960/GTX770 something.

the first rig is the better one out of the two, and the 270x trades blows with the RX 460.

oh shit, you're right.

 

@yazerak, no need to do the GPU swap, the 270X is actually the same, if not better than, the 460. crazy.

Yeah, no idea why people are saying the 460 is better lol. RX 460 is basically the modern day version of the R9 270x. First system is definitely better.
