The AMD build has a considerably more powerful graphics card and its CPU is more powerful for modern games that have multi-core support (basically all of them).

The only better thing about the Intel build is that the CPU is faster for single threaded programs.

You made a couple mistakes here, for one, you listed a NAS drive which is designed specifically for NAS storage.
Secondly the Amazon link is an XFX CORE EDITION AMD HD 7770 which is far less superior to the GTX 780 (which is around $650)

Not to mention, XFX boards are known for going pop, particularly mobo's.

I can't seem to figure out why you have two cases and two GPU's listed. But disregarding that, I would discourage you from using an A4 APU. If you want to go the APU route (which I don't recommend), you should get at least an A8. Also a heads up, the crossfire with the built in graphics and the Radeon HD 6670 will only give you a 5 fps or less increase from not using crossfire.
