Greetings.
I'm considering building my first PC, and have rounded off two part-lists. I was hoping some of the more experienced builders could advise me regarding which one is better, along with other possible tips, parts and builds.

The first features the Intel Pentium G3258, that I intend to overclock heavily with the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO cooler and the Gigabyte GA-Z97-HD3 motherboard. It also incorporates an R9 270x.
The second, however, features an Intel Core i3, and since it can't be overclocked, I decided to forgo aftermarket cooling and a fancy motherboard. It's paired with a GTX 750ti (EVGA 2GB OC) for lower power consumption, less noise, and better temperatures.
I'd appreciate any help.
