since its cyber power definitely upgrade the power supply.
the stock case supply that came with mine was unstable under load for long periods of time.
I replaced it with a 700w corsair and no issues since.
with the new power supply I am current running @4.7 gig on a 3.5 gig 2700k and temps are around 25c at idle and 30c under load.

Cyberpower is a pretty good company to have build your computer for you. They leave the set up wide open for you to change things around and make your own upgrades.
I would definitely go with option 3. I wouldn't worry too much about replacing the power supply as Sith is claiming... Unless you want to shell out a couple extra hundred for a good 800w+ one you aren't going to see much variance in the sub 800w market and it won't be monetarily worth it to replace it.

if you want to trust $400 motherboard/processor to a $40 power supply then go right ahead.. there is a reason they cost $40.
just read their tech support forums its full of people complaining about cheap case power supplies.
and the corsair 700w supply i bought was a $110 bucks at best buy. I could have got it cheaper if I wanted to wait on shipping.

As long as you aren't playing new games at anything greater than 1366x768 and med to low settings, options 2 & 3 will be ok as long as you upgrade the power supply.

for processors Intel > AMD right now. There's no point in getting anything other than a i5/i7 (2nd gen sandy bridge) right now. Unless you're waiting for ivy bridge.

THESE SUCK!
Why: Because they are not built by nerds. They are built by little asian people who do not care about how good the computer is!

never heard of the gt520 gpu, but i would suggest a 560ti at least if you are getting a pre built since to upgrade the gpu on a pre built system you usually have to upgrade the psu

and that is why no one here will ever respect your opinion(s) about computers...ever again. or at least not take you seriously.
You should NEVER use the power supply that comes with a case, because they are never good quality PSU's. Always better to buy a separate case and PSU.

What sort of games do you play? Are you really just buying a $900 ACF machine? If so, you might consider a tablet.
If you do play games that will need 1G graphics cards and 8+ G of memory, I'd probably go with option 3 as the liquid cooling will be quieter.
