I have been playing with a shitty 2006 HP pavilion and since I really get into the whole PC-related world in 2010 [But now more than ever] I want to buy a PC for gaming [for "simple" games like TF2, Killing Floor, Counter Strike, etc]. While searching online I saw this "CYBERPOWERPC 'Build Your Own' Gaming Desktop Bundle" and the advice I need is that this $555 bundle really worth the money

those graphics cards kinda suck. If I were you, I'd build my Pc but it seems that you're new to this. So, your call.

As for if the set is worth it, I'm not too sure. It seems to be the right price for its parts but they're low-tier and won't handle much in the near future. In other words, it's not future-proof.

For $555 build your own. You could build a better machine for the money.

This sound much much better. As I can use this as a starting base and upgrade later if the AMD Radeon HD 6670 Graphics is not an integrated video card

Just build your own pc from scratch...then you know what you did, and what you put into it. Plus if you shop around you can always get good deals. If you have the time, and patience to build your own rig then it's very rewarding. Each to their own.
