Which computer is better for the price?

Well i'm looking to get a new gaming pc soon and im down to 2 choices.

First one is a Cyberpower PC for $1,120

Specs-

CPU- AMD FX-9370 4.40 GHz (4.7 GHz Turbo) Eight-Core AM3+ CPU 8MB L2 Cache & Turbo Core Technology

GPU-AMD Radeon R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 PCIe 3.0 x16 Video Card (HIS IceQ X2 Edition w/ Double Fans)

Memory- 8GB

HDD- 2TB

The second one is a more expensive Alienware for $1,300

CPU-4th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-4790 Processor (8MB Cache, up to 4.0GHz)

GPU-NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 760 Ti with 2GB GDDR5

Memory- 16GB

HDD- 1TB

I'm not too good with computers so which one is better for the price? Is it worth it to pay more for the Alienware? And if both computers are bad, can I get a link to a better one?

Thanks.

    I'd say the Cyberpower PC. The GPU is better than a GTX 760, however if you're into adding PhysX then you might want to go with the Alienware, unless Cyberpower allows you to change to an NVidia card. Neither computers are bad. I have a similar set up to both computers combined (AMD CPU, NVidia GTX 760), except I built it myself and the CPU is an 8350
