If you do gaming, then its 2nd option all the way, 3.9GHz and R9 280 3 GB sums it up.
If you are into video/ VFX rendering, the FX 8 core will(may) do you wonders.

But there's a catch, the 2nd option got no SSD, which is very much recommended for any decent specs rig.

If you can tell the budget then maybe I can swap the Case and PSU of 2nd option with some better ones without changing the CPU, GPU and RAM and maybe a SSD.

If they're prebuilt PCs, I would prefer the 2nd one, for the 3.9GHz 6 core and R9 280.

Yes, If its not prebuilt, it should have Gigabyte/ MSI/ ASRock/ Asus motherboard, there're others as well. He didn't specify if its custom made or not so I can't recommend him one.
Yes SSD won't help in gaming, but it'd improve the overall performance of PC, taking booting time and program opening time into consideration. No one likes slow PC which takes years to boot up.
