My priorities are as follows:

-Light gaming(Team Fortress 2, CS:GO, Shogun 2) etc.
- Some Video Editing
- Programming
- Home tasks

I intend for this to be future proof, which is why i chose 16gb over 8gb

Thank for Your time

both of these systems are rough and won't really game past low settings. I'll make something that will suit your needs.

If you can stretch your budget a little this will be considerably better than both of those systems.

Here's a build for your price range. 16gb vs 8gb will be the least of your worries when it comes to future proofing by the way. for this budget future proofing isn't really going to happen.

Tiny voices' build is a lot better than the one by mikerockett, but i think the one i'll make you will be a bit better than that.

It's CPU is slower than the six core he used in multithreaded applications, but you'll notice no difference in gaming.
The motherboard used in my build is miles ahead in build quality and allows you to upgrade to an FX 8 core in the future and overclock it as high as you want.
And because FX 8xxx series CPU's tend to use a lot of power, i upgraded the power supply as well.The PSU used in my build is higher quality and can deliver around 30% more power to your system's main components.
The graphics card i used is significantly faster at stock speeds and can get even faster when overclock. And we're not talking small gains here. We're talking 40%.
The case i used is unfortunetly crap. It's a good thing your PC isn't going to put out a lot of heat.
And that is basicly it.
Better performance and upgradibility, worse looks, cheaper.
