For $700, this system would serve you much better than either of the prebuilts. It has more ram, more than 2x the gpu power, an actual dedicated gpu, larger power supply, much better cpu, etc. and I'm almost certain that the price could be dropped a bit further, or more powerful parts could be gotten for the same price.
Or, for $60 more, I cooked up this one. It has an improved cpu, a newer, more power-efficient gpu, and a 120GB SSD as well: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3gedf
That SSD would greatly improve overall snappiness of tasks and, in my opinion, would make browsing and simply using the computer much more bearable and enjoyable.
