Has anybody tried this? Managed to get an ultrabook for a very good price and would like to keep it as my main PC. Has TB connectivity and I would think it doesn't matter that it's not HP. Found one locally for £80 and going to check it out later today. Anything I should be aware of?

Up and running
 
Only issues:
Dropping the LAN connection after a period of inactivity
PSU fan running even without load. Replaced the PSU with a passive one and all nice and quiet.
Short TB3 cable and difficult to find a longer one that will work without spending a fortune.
Too much empty space in the enclosure - could easily fit another couple of cards.

Don't think i would have bought it if i had a 1060 (or even 1050) in my laptop but as it's an ultrabook the difference in games is massive.
