Not necessarily.  If you have a good computer already you can buy a good GPU then sell it later for close to what you paid.  Check ebay for the higher-end ATI cards.  If you have to buy a computer from scratch, well, that's another story.  Then again mining rigs are selling on ebay for $2000+.

Use a mining profitability calculator (freely available online). That will help you with roi calculation.
