Choosing a new computer

Hello!
I've been doing some research for quite a while now in order to get the best deal out of my money. Now my list of computers is down to only 2 different ones, and I need to know which one is the best.

Here they are: (the sites are in Swedish though)

A computer with two Nvidia gtx680 working in SLI,
Intel® Core i7 3770K 3,5GHz - processor
MSI Z77A-G45 Z77 - motherboard
2 x Corsair 8GB Module DDR3 1600MHz - RAM
120GB Force 3 - SSD
Seagate Barracuda 2TB - harddrive
Corsair TX 850W V2 80+ - Power Supply
Windows 8 - OS
No monitor.
No CPU Cooler

A computer with two ATI Radeon 7970 working in CF,
Intel Core i7 3820 3,2GHz - Processor
MSI X79A-GD45 X79 - Motherboard
Corsair 16GB DDR3 1600MHz 4 kit - RAM
120GB Force 3 - SSD
Samsung EcoGreen F4 2TB - Harddrive
Corsair HX 850W 80+ - Power Supply
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - OS
THOR Display IPS LED 23" - Monitor
Corsair Cooling Hydro H80 - CPU Cooler

So, any thoughts? Both computers cost 15000 SEK each, which is about 1745 Euro or 2263 USD.
Which one is the best one? I would personally say the second one, as it has a CPU cooler, better motherboard etc, but the processor is weaker and you can't use Nvidia Physics in games. An extra monitor for the same price is nice though :)
 
Given the choice I'd probably go for the 3820 system. Usually I'd say to choose a 3770K over a 3820, but the 3820 system is better value as it has a more upgradable platform/motherboard, as well as a liquid cooler included and a modular PSU and a 2TB HDD and Windows 7. Yeah, I'd say get that.
