First option, Even though the others seem to be more expensive, that doesn't mean they are better, AMD CPU's are not bad and i'm not throwing a bad review at them, but Intel over AMD Cpu's? Intel will always win, no matter how much Ghz compared with the both, and personally, I know this from experience Amd Cpu's is not really the best for gaming either but their Graphics cards are amazing.
