So my friend made this build for me. He made one with an Intel processor and one with an AMD processor

Intel - http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3HNZy

AMD - http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3NrDP

I believe its the exact same build except for the processor. I wanted to ask if the processor would really make a difference? Will it affect my gaming? And Which would be the "better" build to get, even if its just minuscule?

Also If you have a suggested build for me that's <$1,000 please feel free to post it. Just keep in mind that it has to include W7, The Monitor, And keyboard. The Headphones can be omited

you could actually get 4670k for 189.99 at micro center if you have one nearby and if you buy a motherboard with it there you get $30 extra off the price so total price is just little lower than 1k and everything pretty much is upgraded at the same price point.( except for the power supply but that one in there will handle everything just fine)

Oh I guess I forgot to put in original post. I dont plan on overclocking since I have no idea how to do so and dont want to risk ruining my parts. Also when you say the 4440 is "stronger" how does that apply to gaming? I dont really understand sorry im not a tech person
