I'm a 1st time PC builder and I want to build my own PC for the experience and for fun. I'm mainly going to use it for gaming. I was wondering which build I should go with(and if I could get better parts for the same/cheaper price)

1st Build

CPU- Intel i5-4670K $220 (NE)
Motherboard- ASUS Z87-Pro $180($160-rebate) (NE)
GPU- GIGABYTE GTX 750 Ti $150 (NE)
RAM- Kingston HyperX Blu (2 x 4GB) $76 (Amazon)
HDD- Seagate ST1000DM003 $53 (Amazon)
Case- Corsair Spec-01 $50 (NE)
Power Supply- SeaSonic S12II 620W $72 (NE)
Optical Drive- Asus DRW $17 (NE)

2nd Build
CPU- AMD FX-8350 $175 (NCIX)
Motherboard- ASUS M5A99FX Pro R2.0 $140/128 (SuperBiiz)
GPU- Sapphire Dual-X R9 280 $220/200 (NE)
RAM- Kingston Blu Red Series (2 x 4GB) $72 (NCIX)
HDD- Seagate ST1000DM003 $58/53 (OutletPC)
Case- Corsair Spec-01 $50/40 (NE)
