I need some help deciding what the best route to go is. I've been out of the CPU/APU/GPU wars for sometime and have no idea whats what.

I'm looking for a sub £500 desktop gaming PC that has plenty of ability to be upgraded. Ideally the best bang for buck APU, with enough RAM and Graphics power to get by for now. Then in the future upgrade those as needed.

I've been looking at things such as these:

Is there anything else I should be considering?

Thanks for the advice all.

I've decided to go for this one:

Give me enough power out of the box to to what I want, and should be upgradable enough. Although, am I right in thinking that I can buy an AMD graphics card and combine it with the onboard card for better performance?
