Is this a good setup for $713.00? I am looking for something that will run the latest games but is also easily upgradable to keep current for a few years. My budget is about $700, I know I could probably do a bit better by building myself, but as far as pre builts go, what do you think about this one?

AMD Phenom II X3 720 2.8Ghz 6MB Cache FSB 3600MHz HT
AMD Heatsink and Fan Included
ASUS M4A78-EM HDMI (ATI Radeon HD3200 Video, DVI, HDMI, PCI-Ex, 8-Channel Audio, LAN, 5xSATA2, 4xDDR2, 1394)
4GB (2GBx2) PC6400 DDR2 800Mhz Memory Lifetime Warranty
500GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache Serial ATA300
22X LG Dual Layer DVD+/-RW/CDRW w/Nero
1GB ATI Radeon HD4870 GDDR5 PCI Express DVI/Tvout
Raidmax Black Sagitta 2 (5 5.25, 5 3.5 bays) 2 Fans, Window, Front Audio/USB
500watt Antec EarthWatts EA500
Onboard LAN included
Wireless B/G PCI Adapter
Onboard Sound included
Standard 1 year parts and labor
 
Not bad for a pre built however do it yourself.

You can get an Athlon X4 Quad Core, 4GB of RAM, a 4870, 500Gb Hard drive, and 630W PSU with 50A for that price though.
