Extra Crucial Ballistix Tracer 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AL1065)

What's everyone think of this system for gaming? also I chose this because I think the ATi Radeon comes with HDMI output for my Samsung 32" TV.
 
Can't really customise the set system's OcUK sell other than the Case/Extra Memory/Operating System. Otherwise I would change a few things. Not really up to date on components nowadays mind.
 
Anyone know what version of the ATi Radeon is shipped with this system form OcUK?

Also I want to use the HDMI Output to my TV. Does the Radeon DVI to HDMI conveter come with it, or will I need to purchase this seperately?

Just confirmed with OcUK that this is coming to me tomorrow, so need to know to get the converter if it does not come with it.

ATi Radeon HD 3870 X2 1024MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) DirectX 10 Graphics Card

Please?
