Is it a good idea to actually buy one of the above and try to put Radeon hd7770 in it? Or most likely there'll be cooling/power supply issues hidden behind the low price? Worth the risk?

Budget?

If you buy them from ebay there might come a box full of bricks instead of a PC xD

200 pounds, I have graphics card PCI-E connected by 6 pins (if it makes any difference) + 4x2GB ddr2 memory from the old pc

never buy a PC like this
look on the picture so much dirt


i think the PCs are not good to play any game for this price 
(maybe for SAMP its enough)

Most of the time these PC's linked are especially made "sparse" so you can't extend it very much.
Most likely they'll put a complete shit stain motherboard into a computer so you can't expand it.

If you don't need it fast build a custom one over time, it's worth it.

thanks for the advice, btw there's so many people trying to make money on peoples' ignorance. Like 4/5 cheap PC adverts don't provide PSU/motherboard specification. Put 2 mid-high quality parts, shout them out in the auctions' title and hope people will assume the whole PC is up to these 2 parts standard. It's like selling a "seller refubrished" Ferrari and concealing the fact it has a Daewoo Matiz engine. Ended up buying this mofoker http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262508316103
