so I've been given a pc build from someone that's meant to be better than the one I'm going to get
which one is better for current and next gen games, I also need I be able to record games and do school.
Games I wanna play are BF4, watch dogs and Titanfall

Also could I use the 7950 with both builds and still get next gen games working

Definitely the Intel build in my opinion, Intel + Nvidia any day over AMD. They are just higher quality parts and will perform much better over comparable AMD counterparts. That 2nd build is the way to go! Hope this helps :D
 
Agreed with Havoc with the intel build even though its not a K sku processor you'll be happier with the intel solution. And just really a nit pick more then anything if you are going to spend 50+ dollars on a keyboard get a mechanical keyboard that will last. I'd personally recommend either blues or browns.
