    [URGENT] Need help go choose between 2 PCs

    They both have a same price, 1st one:
    i5 3550
    R9 380 4gb gigabyte g1
    8GB Ram
    500GB HDD

    2nd one:
    i5 3550
    Gtx 660 2GB Gainward
    8GB ram
    120GB SSD and 1TB HDD

    R9 is a bit better card than 660 but this one has ssd and more hdd
    I would use it to play GTA V and Minecraft
    I need help to decide which one to choose, thank you guys

              You will want to look at a gold and maybe a bigger PSU

              Another thing is the parts are old personally save your money and get a proper gaming system.

                No question about it. The first one.
                Does not matter if you have an SSD for games as it mostly matters with boot time but not playing. You can add HDD’s or SSD’s anytime. Should always have 2 storage in your PC. One for backup. While the second one has 2, the SSD is not large enough for GTA V to install on with the OS ( you could but don’t fill up your OS SSD as it does not like that). Boot times on the game on the HDD will be the same for either PC.
                GPU 4Gb is better than 2Gb everyday.

                Both PC’s are weak for GTA V but as long as you are happy with that. I might save more money and buy something along the lines of a gaming PC. Save lots! Have fun
