They both look good in there own right I do like the 2nd as you can see the name AOC and how it flows in the letters. I also like the black and white it simple but looks good it not over the top. I think if you have the phoenix from the 1st picture smaller and in black and white in the 2nd picture with the Aoc name it be perfect personally. But 2nd is a good design anyhow I love all the art work here.
I voted 1 because i like the colour . but id like to see #2 with an edge outline of the image using the colours from one. Maybe some wisped Highlights in the image of the orange flame colour as well.
The second phoenix design looks like a rough sketch on paper; when passion for the idea needed to be represented by an icon, the artist, with the project details still fresh in their memory, put pencil to paper and produced this organic/asymmetric design.
The first one looks like a businessman told the artist to take their initial design and make it "marketable".
I really like how they've managed to make it look like a phoenix and a tree at the same time. It captures the growth that will be present in the world as we experience it and also that long dead dynasties and cities won't always stay that way...

It IS a tree. Look at the roots.
It is a combination of tree, set on fire, it's branches burning, and a phoenix in the same time.
Second one is a better balance between a tree and a phoenix, that's why i like it more.
First one is mostly a phoenix with some small roots.
Exactly!
