Better for what?
If your board is a high speed board (fast switching), then I suggest to
arrange the power plans as near as possible together. This way you build a
very low impedance capacitor. I'm not a highspeed guru, but layer staking
can be very tricky.
If space is the concerne, you may coose an other stackup. But I doubt you
will have more space if you have the power planes on the outer layers,
because ypu need for all smd-pads also a via (exept the power pins). This
will eat up a lot of your space.
By the way, it's not a good practise to make the outer plane to a power
plane (by swapping the gerbers). I know, you haven't said this, but just in
case. Instead use polygon fills. You will have much better control over the
copper(Vias, clearances, placing strings, ...).
