I'm fairly new to the PC scene I've always been a console gamer.

However in about a couple week's time I'm going to be getting my first gaming PC but it's narrowed down between two units but I'm unsure which is better for playing games at 1080P 60FPS consistently. (I would also like to run mods on Skyrim)

The two Units don't allow for much customisation other than adding a couple accessories here or there.

Would love to know what's ideally better

PC - A
I5 6 core processor 2.9GHz
Cyberpower B360M Xtreme AC (4 RAM Slots)
16GB RAM (2x 8GB)
MSI Geforce GTX 1660 6Gb
240 Gb SSD
2 Tb HDD
230V 400W power supply

PC - B
Ryzen 5 2600
AMD A320 motherboard (No additional RAM Slots stated)
16GB RAM (2x 8Gb)
480 Gb L5 LITE SSD
Geforce GTX 1660 OC 6Gb
1Tb HDD
500W bronze rated PSU.

whats your budget ?

i5 will perform better then ryzen 2600 due to 2600 being capped at stock speeds , and intel performing better at 1080pp though you'd need a 144hz screen to see benifits of PC over console or higher res

Having read this thread, I'd be wary of that motherboard over the longer term.

The A320 motherboard is rock bottom; if you can get a B350 or B450 motherboard - it should only be an extra £10 - go for the second.

On both systems, see if you can upgrade the GPU to 1660 Ti or RTX 2060.

You can get cheap Windows 10 licenses elsewhere.

You seem to be asking about a competitor builder so here are three from OCUK that are better and still within your budget:

Total: £699.19 (includes shipping: £12.30)​

No HDD at all, just a SSD.​
