Instead of upgrading to 2x2GB config for +350, I'd take the default
of 2x1GB offered for zero extra, then shop for memory separately,
to get exactly what you want. You have four slots, 1GB sticks start
at $25 each and go up in price, and if you want a 4GB config, that
is one way to do it. The only reason I'd consider a 2GB stick in a
build, is if I was going to 8GB immediately. Check the Newegg pricing,
to see if there is any merit to 2GB sticks at this time.

Any time you buy a system like this, there is bound to be a component
or two, which has a few problems. It is possible to do some research,
and see if there are issues with any of it.

For example, occasionally there are issues reported installing OSes
with 4GB memory present. Removing a stick of RAM and doing the install
can fix it. If Cyberpowerpc does the install for you, they'll take care
of that detail. But then, you won't know later, what they did to get
it all installed.

I had a computer built locally, and in terms of the build quality, there
wasn't a single problem with the result. One advantage of the local purchase,
is if I hadn't been happy with the result, they were in "bludgeoning" distance
from me (small claims court if necessary, or credit card dispute). When dealing
mail order, from some distant location, a company can more easily give you
the cold shoulder.

In terms of checking out the company themselves, you can try Resellerratings
or maybe the BBB where they are located. It does pay to do a background check,
because there are some bad players out on the 'net.
