Recommendation on rig

[syntax]

Hi,

I'm looking around for a 2nd hand gaming rig.
I found 2 sellers pricing their rigs at the same price($440-450).

May I know if it's worth it? If so, which is better?

Motherboard : Gigabyte GA-H55M-S2
Memory : 4GB (2 x 2GB) Kingston DDR3 1333MHz RAM
Hard Disk : Seagate 750GB
Graphics Card : Palit GTX 560 Ti Sonic OC
DVD Drive : OEM DVD Recorder Drive
Power Supply : Antec 650W
Casing : PowerLogic Allegra 500

Rig 2
Processor : Intel i5-2400
Motherboard : Gigabyte p61-usb3-b3 (the second ram slot faulty)
Memory : G skill 4gb 1333
Hard Disk : Samsung 500gb
Graphics Card : MSI twin frozr gtx 560ti 2gb
Power Supply : Seasonic 620w

hi thanks for the reply.

erm initially i set my budget at 1.2k+/- with monitor.
but after some consideration, taking into account that i'm still in NS..i thought i might as well get a 2nd hand rig and slowly upgrade as i go along.

so perhaps $600+/- for just the rig alone?

or should i still go for 1st hand rigs? i'm hoping that it can give me decent playability on the current games and future ones.
