Keen to get people's thoughts on the below, I've just ordered the following for £1185 but unsure if it's the best possible system for the money. I am likely to be playing 1080p at 60/144hz for the next three years or so and wouldn't want to upgrade anything in this period.

Hi Lee

Thanks for looking over it - I often get anxious once I've made a purchase of this nature. They had a couple of options but it added more than it's value to the total cost as it's a promotional offer apparently. They reassured me that although not an established brand they're good enough.
 
Went ahead and bought the system. Put it through its paces and GPU doesn't get above 70 in games. 144 FPS on battlegrounds on a mixture of settings - really pleased with it.
