That's from iBuyPower or CyberPower, correct? I would strong suggest avoiding them, since they have a horrible reputation. Wrongful parts sent (i.e. 7300GT instead of a 7600GT), lack of a customer service, dead parts, retarded stuff like gluing RAM to the motherboard...

Also, how much is that PC? What's your budget for a pre-built?

I smell defective parts

don't use a price matcher and don't buy from a "gaming" computer store they can give very high spec computers but are oftern more expensive, look for a company which isn't well known but is a rather small company this way you'll get good service and a good price as they're trying to get customers and a good reputation (you should be able to phone them up and ask about specific parts aswell, no callcenters). I only know of one in the uk is PC specialist

 however there is probably one in the US that does the same thing. If your looking for the full package (PC, moniter, keyboard, mouse, speakers) then dell is always a good bet.

Now the specs, don't go for that processor go for the 5600+ or 5200+ and save a bundle with not much dip in performance. With the money saved you can upgrade the graphics card to an 8800gts 320mb. Go for vista home premium at the tops ultimate is a waste of cash.
