Solution
All those companies provide almost exactly the same performance. I'd go for the first one because of the i7 4790K and cheaper price than company 3.

Thanks very much. Can you tell me why is 1 better than 2? I will ask them to remove the wireless that costs 34€ and add more 8gb for more 80€.

Is number 1 better because of the motherboard?
 
the number one is the best so far...the only thing i do not like is the motherboard...i do not suggest the gigabyte Z97 SLI
because of the bad layout and a bit messy to install because of the bad position of the cpu power connector
and not really built for overclocking ( i have one like that )
 

The motherboard is good for the low price though, isn't it?
