I say both are pretty good. With the AMD build you could just get the 8320 if you wanted.

But for both I would honestly just drop the SSD and put that money into a better GPU as that'll help you more in gaming then a SSD will at this price range. You can always buy an SSD later on especially when they drop in price around christmas or so.
