it has a integrated gphcs chip: Intel® HD Graphics 4600

This is what i am looking at getting for my next computer. Before you flame at the graphics i will prob buy a graphics card for it later. My question is though do you guys think this is a ok rig to start out with and add upgrades to especially the graphics card. Also i have seen where a couple people on other forums have had problems adding graphics cards to computers with integrated graphics, is that something that should concern me and make me steer away from it. The computer would be a brand new rig just over 500 to start. Other than a graphics card (btw probably end up getting something around Nvidia GTX760 or higher) is there any thing else that i would want to upgrade right away?

I am not looking for some super gaming computer just somthing that i can run mid level graphics on a couple games like DCS-Flaming Cliffs, on here AH, SimCity, Civ 5 those are the type of games im running right now.

it would be better if you post a link to what you are buying.  not enough information to really say yes or not. 

but the mention that you can do extreme gaming without a video card is basically a lie.  and if you are spending 500 bucks it looks like it is a basic model that you most likely wont be able to upgrade later on.  other than to add a video card  and depending on the set up it may also limit which vc you can get.

in other words, they're adding big words to make you buy it, but it could be a mistake.

This appears to be a Dell, I would guess around an XPS-8700 or something close.   Dunno how proprietary the cases are nowadays, but upgrading the video card will more than likely involve replacing the power supply.   In doing so, finding one that is the proper wattage and will actually fit.   Even if this not a Dell, the same will apply in regards to the dimensions of the power supply.

Also, using on board graphics, you will be lucky to use Medium settings.

The specs are alright, but as others already have told, the Intel chip isn't good for gaming, especially not good for Aces High. You're on a right track with your video card choice, a decent high class card makes good bang for the buck. Again, it's been already mentioned that you'd have to replace the power supply in order to feed the new video card. Also possible measure and cabling issues have been mentioned. Quite many things to take into consideration!

My suggestion is to build a computer from scratch using the dell specs as a guideline added with the necessary improvements.

This is what I came up using www.pcpartpicker.com for a roughly similar one than your suggestion, only way more upgradable. I believe it should also be a tad faster, although I chose the parts with price in mind just as Dell would... Just add a video card of your choice:
