Hello, I will tell you my opinion on both of the computers, the first one is an AMD quad core which is okay but they will be left in the dust before too long, and the other one which is an AMD 6 core is better but if you want to stick with AMD then I would get an 8 core. I am an intel fan and for intel, I would recommend an i5, i7, or a quad core xeon (server processor). i7s are rated higher then most AMD 8 core processors but that's personal preference. You will need at least 8GB of RAM, 16 is a bit overkill but it depends on what you will be doing, I definitely agree that 1TB will get the job done. You will also need a graphics card, preferably 2GB or 4GB, I currently have a 2GB EVGA/Nvidia GT 630 and the performance is amazing. Last but not least, WIndows 8 is not very game friendly so if you do get a Windows 8 computer, call Microsoft and ask then if you can exchange that for a Windows 7 key. Hope I helped! Also if you have any questions, feel free to PM me!
