#2 is the only decent gaming build imo, #3 is the only decent all-round build imo. With #2 you could def go with a better CPU (or if your primary goal is gaming, a better gfx card) and with #3 you would primarily need to improve the gfx card. Both lack ram (8GB is nearly a must-have nowadays) and #2 is based a newer, more capable chipset. Both could use at least a small SSD for the OS + primary programs.
Are you building these or are these offers?

Are you sure you want to buy the 7750 as a gpu?

Thanks, Imma get this
@Bengali thanks for the help, well I believe Alen because he helped alot of people building PCs, Im not going to overclock (idk how to do that) I just want for run bf3 (not at max) with a 50-60fps I appreciate your help too. about the Gfx card ( Im not even going to use it at max lol) thanks anyway.

Why a micro-ATX board?
A 7850 would be a better choice.
A green drive?
No after-market cooler with an unlocked CPU?
He's on a budget. The difference between the ATX (non -M) board and the MATX board isn't enough to warrant him spending extra money on it. Same goes for the 7850, the green drive is there for two reasons: reliability and being quiet. He has a SSD for the OS/primary apps, he doesn't need something better or costlier solely for data storage. Knowing Ecstasy he'll sooner wreck his PC than OC it right. However given his budget he's better off using the stock cooler (which should keep the CPU within safe temps) and getting a better GFX card now or something rather than getting a worse GFX card and aftermarket cooling. You can always just get a decent heatsink later, however you can't simply replace a gfx card.

He's on a budget and you suggest a SSD for him rather than a better graphics card? I am sure a GTX 670 can be fit into that price range.
Provide proofs that green drives are more reliable, besides being slow of course. A 128GB SSD isn't enough to carry every program.
Well if he's not good with overclocking, don't recommend an unlocked CPU then.
It's just a horrible build, period.

What? A GTX 670 is not worth dropping the SSD? And a 560ti is worth it? Yea a SSD improves gaming performance.
A128GB isn't nearly enough. For you it might be, not for everyone. So stop assuming.
I still don't see why there is no heatsink recommended.
Horrible build is still horrible. Try again.

Would you rather have an uncomfortable Ferrari or a comfortable Mercedes Benz for driving around town? I would always choose the latter

Yea it's your choice who you want to listen to. Just because he helps a lot of people doesn't mean he's always right. You could get a locked CPU like the i5 3450 if you are not going to overclock.
Good luck with the build. Make sure to post pics.
