Its not a horrible price

 

But before you spend any money I'd recommend watching Dave2D's video on Xiaomi laptops and buying xiaomi products outside of Asia and how their customer service is

Maybe look for a Dell G5 or inspiron.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Really depends, for a gaming laptop, wouldn't recommend it but if it is a slim perhaps quite portable one than yes. For gaming I would recommend the Asus ZX553VD or something similar, 700£ but it has i7 7700HQ, 8gb ram and a gtx 1050 2gb

If you don't mind the aftersales service and unknown longevity, then yes
