Hello people! I've made two gaming builds around $1100 each, one being AMD and one being Intel. Basically, the builds are exactly the same, but the Intel one has the i7-4770k with the gtx770 with 2gb of vram, and the AMD has the fx-8350 with the gtx770 with 4gb of vram.

I really don't know what option to chose. I need to keep this computer for quite a long time, and I don't really want to overclock anything. I'm also using 2 monitors and mostly for fps gamming. I will possibly upgrade this build in the future.
Any advice?

I know all of this hype between AMD and Intel, so If this post couldn't be a cult war that would be great.
Thanks!

rymu is right that 4gb vram isn't that important(except for very high resolutions & 4k monitors)
And in (benchmark) the 4770k wins easily, in (most) games your gpu is more important & you'll hardly notice a difference between either processor.
That said, for the same price, not even a question get the 4770k ( I have an intel). For gaming an I5 is fine - save the money
