For gaming you do not need that much RAM... you're just costing yourself more money. It almost seems you don't know what you're doing..

How you should do it is the following...
Buy a small 250GB Solid State Drive and raid it to 0.
Then buy a 3TB Hard Drive for storing your games and folders on, so that your computer will live and last even longer then you already plan on having it.
Plus I suggest using a different type of Motherboard..

The store owner gave me a discount on the 16 gb ram. So it costs the same as the 8 gb. So i took it

They're not bad at all, just pretty overpowered, lol

Personally... I would just go with the second. I'd say it's more powerful.

They are pre-built. I'm getting a big discount on them, because i know the boss who owns the place. 1200w I will be upgrading it, 3 graphic cards and more stuff.

Are these prebuilts?

Anyways, why do you need an i7?

Do you need 16GB's of ram?

Why do you need a 1200w PSU??

Do you need a 290x? Are you gonna be gaming at 1440p or higher?

And no need for a 3TB HDD, lol.
