They're both good actually. The first one has a better GPU than the second one, but it doesn't have the SSD's. The CPU's are pretty much the same unless you are going to be using it for video editing etc.

It's really up to you actually. I would get the second one and upgrade the GPU, but the first one is better since there's no upgrades that are really needed.

Second one, imo. If you need the additional graphics power, upgrade up.
