my build uses a sapphire radeon 6850 with the exact same ram and an AMD x4 955 at 3.2 GHz (not oc'd yet) and it cost me only $500~ US (350€ I think). In short it's never worth it to buy a computer, and it's not that difficult to build your own since newegg posted those 3 tutorial vids on youtube.

for upgrades it depends heavily on your motherboard's PCI expansion slots, cpu type, supported ram, and then there's your psu you need to watch if you want to add another gpu for crossfire or sli (though crossfiring tends to be a waste of money if you can afford a better card).

But is the pc has it is worth the buy or not ?It's not. It's not recommended to use a 5400 RPM hd as your system disc. (Caviar Green is just that... it's recommended for storing data - films, music, pics, etc. - not running programs from it. The PSU is shit tier.
If it had a proper (7200 RPM) hard disc and a reliable PSU it'd be OK, but not a "great" deal as you can do better from the same money if you build the system yourself.
I also don't like buying "built" PCs, since the guarantee is for the whole setup not just the individual components, so you can't tweak/upgrade it on your own, you usually have to do all these at your supplier... and if you have any problem you need to bring the whole PC instead just the component that's giving you trouble... though this could be different with your supplier this tends to be (one of) the caveats of buying whole configs.

Build a game rig is just the same as building any computer.. unless you add liquid or beer cooled systems or that gnarly submerse in oil cooling system.
Or other options like... ha amd x2 gaming rigs... no but other seem nice.. x4, i5, AMD X8... wooo
