New Laptop Suggestions, Amazon UK

Hello guys!

My best friend recently moved in the UK so he is searching to buy a new laptop.

I have almost NO idea about laptops, and while I'm searching myself for a good buy, I would also like some suggestions from someone with better knowledge.

He wants a laptop for browsing the web, watching movies and able to play some games like CS:GO and AAA games at Low-Medium settings.

He does not care about portability, (so weight is not that much of an issue).He wants a laptop because he has no space for a desktop.

An SSD would be nice.

Any suggestions? Is Amazon UK worth it? Any other vendor choices?

Budget is about 800 Euros/ 700 UK Pounds.

He has no building experience nor he is exactly passionate to learn :P. Do you think he can find a mini ITX prebuilt (plus monitor and peripherals) at about 700 UK Pounds, with better performance than a laptop at this price range? I doubt it... Mini ITX's are too expensive.
