/Double fail your putting 400 usd to euros mate, not 400 euros to usd..
Euro is worth MORE than usd.. this means 400 euro's would be MORE in USD

Buy it if you can afford to put in a new graphics card. Because it looks like a PC shop ad, you might be able to deal with them and get an upgrade for rather cheap.

If you need to do loads of graphical stuff buy the 500 one, if not the 400 one should do just fine

7100gs isn't a huge upgrade, but the processo upgrade is nice. I still think it would be better to buy the cheaper one, but to ask about a graphics card upgrade (7600gt+ depending on how much you're willing to spend)

This computer is most likely unupgradable.. as in the motherboard is most likely a mini/micro-atx and the card won't fit on.. Just like some of dells pcs have

True, but it's build in such a way that i.e. the processor cooler is in the way. or the psu or whatever..

I haven't seen a picture of the inside, but the case in that picture is a standard ATX.

Could be right, it's just that i've seen a lot of cases that look normal on the outside but are built in a weird way inside.. (pre-built ones)

I've never experienced that except from companies like dell, emachine, and gateway.
If you look on the specs, the pieces are bought seperately and assembled in the shop. They are using standard components.

The GFX card on it still really sucks, you'd have to upgade it as well. Unless you're only playing games that only require handicapped hardware (read: silkroad)
