Personally i would go with the top choice the overclock has been done for you and its goin to be stable and its got 6 gig of DDR3 ram and the other only got 3 gig of DDR3 Ram.
 
Yeah the top bundle is better, however if you buy separately you get this, which is a much better set up, you just need to clock yourself - main improvement is the mobo, the UD5 is an excellent board, alternatively if you want to save money you could drop down a few models, just look through the ones available to see what you need
