what benefits are there to the better version? like what does a better motherboard do, and what does better memory do? and which one would you pick in my case? and how big would the difference be? like would i get better fps with a better motherboard and memory?

What you usually get are better components that should last longer, better overclocking capabilities, additional options and settings, and better customer service in case of problems.

It would be a long story to explain everything, but in short: If you will overclock a lot and demand the most out of your PC, the more expensive parts are worth it. But if you just want a good PC without messing too much with it, the cheaper parts should be enough for you.
