I am building a pc soon for school work and gaming. I plan to play games on 1080p.

I have done some research a put together two different builds and I need your help to choose which one.

They're not much different it's just different motherboard and one has a ssd and the other has aftermarket case fans and a different case.

If you could possibly make a different build within the same price range ($1400) preferably under $1300 or close to $1300 that would be great.

Include monitor, headset and OS.

I plan on modding the bitfenix case by painting the grills red and possibly make a bigger side panel.

Thank you for the quick replies and yes I am going to use an ssd to load the OS and main programmes like word,PowerPoint etc.

And I don't think I will overclocking since an i5 k processor costs more and is kind of out of my budget.
