The problem with the first and third builds you linked is that they are missing most of the necessary components for a computer and the second build has components that cost too much for the performance they give, here is my suggestion for a build, it will be able to handle any game at 60+ fps at 1080p.

If your budget is very strict, you could change the video card to the 280 which will still give great 1080p gaming performance especially for the price.
