Default System 2
System 2 is better as long as u dont mind the price of ddr3
system 1 has bad ram, as a member of this site i would assume your going to overclock and that ram has no cooling, you could do much better.

dude if you have cash to spurge on it..setup 1..but the rams on it are weak..go for the DDR3 1600 or up..

if not that expensive and you want Xtreme performance add some spice on setup 2..like a wicked DDR2 1200(Corsair dominators) on those..
