the second one is the best. if you are gaming in 1080p or lower resolution you ll be able to max crysis 2!
btw this is an old system. i suggest you to buy a newer one. maybe it ll cost you the same and you ll get better performance!
 
yes second one is definitely stronger - they cant possibly be equal on price?? just curious as to why you are comparing them.

As antonisrsx said above, depending on cost you might be able to do better. the second one will max Crysis 2 I would have thought -the 570 is a strong card

711-911 dollars but i live in sweden so its 5000-6000 SEK
 
I don't know of the prices of stuff in Sweden, but I'd love to help you.

The second one is the better computer, but the 6-core Phenoms weren't exactly the best of the gaming CPU's made at the time. It was fast for sure, but not as fast as some other processors. In certain gaming situations my Phenom II 965 Black Edition could smoke it.

Not to say its not a good computer. If you are getting a good deal on it, its definitely worth it.

I would agree that since it has core i7 processor and high ram but with graphics card I won't, try a new one. Try the radeon 7000 series they are better than the radeon 6950 or otherwise try the geforce 600 series also. Of course you will be able to play max crysis 2. But I would suggest that you try another graphic card other than the radeon 6590. Because it is worthless spending money on a good computer with a radeon 6590 graphics card, just try to install one of the graphics card i told you then the computer you have are installed with latest and powerful parts and you can play a lot of games, The radeon 7000 series or the geforce 600 series might be expensive but its worth it.

Nothing wrong with the 6950. When I priced out a new build, I chose the 6950 for it's bang for the buck. Seemed liked one of the best deals for $200.

Seemed like it would run most games very well.

I did end up swapping dual 6950s for two GTX 670s, but it was not really necessary.
