The PSU brand is crap. You can build a system and get better performance + parts for the same price.

Overall the price per performance ratio is decent. But the Hard drive is no name, and there's no SSD. For £1,089.99 you would be able to build a stronger PC with an OS and a SSD. Plus a name brand HDD.
In addition, the warranty probably covers the computer as a whole, and not the individual components. If you build it yourself, you get 1,2,3, and up to 5 year warranties on the individual parts.

That system is on sale, but I wouldn't trust it. Something like this will be nearly as powerful at the same cost, but with better parts.
