Good deal?

Hello!

Can anyone let me know which of the deals below are any
good from this ebayer.

Im looking for a gaming PC and was going to build one myself but check ebay first (which I understand has its ups & downs ) and came across these PC's and thought they looked good value for money, also I was wanting to add a digital TV card once I bought the tower and was wanting to check if the mobo's would accept one .

I will also need a monitor to go with this setup if i choose it, can anyone recommend a good place to get a half decent one for £150 ish.

Thanks

that first one isnt bad...im not really an advocate of intel as a gaming pcu, but im sure theres nothing wrong with it...that onboard audio has got to go though

[CPU] These chips run stupid hot ... not too difficult to cool with good aftermarket cooling but hot nontheless
[MOBO] Crappy motherboard using IIRC a crappy chipset
[VIDEO] A low-midrange gaming card at best
[OPTICAL] Whats the make/model of hte drive?
[SOUND] Do realize that soundcard is built onto the motherboard and you're not getting a sound card per se

Its even funny when you goto the spot where it describes the motherboard, in the title it says SiS741GX (which is crap) but in the description it says the chipset is a Via (which is also crap)
