I'd probably go with the 2nd option, especially if it's a bit cheaper. The higher priced one is probably partly due to be Intel.

I'd just caution in the case size so make sure it's adequate. Video cards are getting pretty large and create a lot a heat. Iv always preferred full towers just for the space and airflow, helps with cooling but I don't use coolers either, just fans.

yes. but what should i look for really.. dont know that much..  i see the graphic card is 24g on the amd.. and 16g on the rtx.  from what i heard in the past.. amd`s runs hotter?  i want a pc that can last for a long time. and run newer games on high settings.  i have a budget for about 3000 dollars.

I have always used intel + Nvidia and I cant say they ever let me down in windows or a linux environment

although opinions are great i always compare the cpu's and gpu's as there are many benchmark sites out there to prove the point...

then i decide for myself what specs are worth the cost of the hardware. you will be surprised how little the gain in perf is from an I7 to an I9 but the price differences are crazy

here is one website you can compare cpu and gpu at...and do some side by side comnparisons
 

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleCompare.php



then make your decision based on specs + price + budget. You may even decide to build your own PC on specs you desire....that is always fun but not always the cheap option

Compare  and toss the dart

 

AMD    chipset   and    CPU

Intel    chipset   and    CPU

 

yes cooling is important keeping hardware longer

pcpartpicker.com is also a good site. you can make multiple builds and see what the price would be and make adjustments while using cpubenchmark/gpubenchmark to see all the pros and cons those components.   Just don't skimp on your power supply. Think ahead and grab one that exceeds your power needs for future tech and get a good quality power supply.  Stay away from the super cheap high watt power supplies.
