newbie to computer building

eeeew... dude... are you purposely trying to sabotage people's appetites with that first build?:ouch:

But the second is manageable. The graphics card and power supply are still awful. You are making the typical newbie mistake. Too much CPU or not enough graphics power (depending on your budget... or both) with shitty power supply.

Use these guidelines and try again then come back to us.
