If you're not wanting to build one yourself then sure, this PC has some good parts. Little expensive for my liking but that is because of all the additional labour costs of parts installation, bios setup and a operating system install as well as their own branded case.

don't get this it is a waste of money in general if you aren't playing at at least 1440p. Build yourself one for much cheaper and down to your requirements.

I'm thinking on buying a gaming pc aswell, this one looks alright, I don't have a clue what's good and what's not but this looks decent. Might have a look into it myself.

It's about £500 more than it should be. It has a poor CPU, they've also lied about CPU speed. They've stated the i5-6400 has a base clock of 3.3GHz, which isn't remotely true. It will boost to 3.3GHz on a single core, but it's base clock is 2.7GHz. Also, crappy motherboard and case, I can guarantee you the PSU is shit too. Storage is meh. Depends more on the actual SSD they're using, it could be a crappy SSD. GTX 1070 is obviously fine, assuming it's not a blower style 1070, but it's really the only component in the system that's worth anything.

For the same price you could get a i7/gtx 1080 build if you did it yourself. i have been building pcs since 11 years of age. only damage i have done is blowing up a i7 with 1.80 volts and that was as i was high as **** when overclocking.
you can not go wrong really when building and to be honest its more fun, even with hassle when building it, once its done and up and running it feels so much better than buying one already built.
that pc is way overpriced and even the m.2 ssd is not great at all. you could get a 512 m.2 easy with a couple ssds and a load of 1tbs hard drives
