I found a laptop Im considering buying. 

It has an I7-7700HQ, 16gb DDR4, 256GB SSD + 1TB HDD, and a GTX 1060 6gb.

 

It's gonna cost £450.

 

Should I buy this or save up for parts so I can build a custom built.

Oh lol skip that immediately. Refurbished VN Nitro with no warranty. Recipe for disaster. The VN is known for its massive heat issues
