They employed the same guy from argos, from a few weeks back? Some crazy deals today.

This is actually a really good deal. Just factoring in the processor, graphics card and the hard drive comes to about £550, that's not pricing up the motherboard, power supply, RAM or the OS, and a three year warranty too?
If you're not interested in building your own this is genuinely a very good deal. I'm tempted myself, but I'm saving up for a Coffeelake machine.

This is an awesome price for a pre-built machine. It'd take some deal hunting to create one for that price yourself let alone have it already made for you.

Having been out of PC building for a few years, what's the processor in this like - is it current or previous generation?

Good enough to not bottleneck a gtx 1070

Technically previous gen but only released late last year and has plenty of power for the foreseeable future.

I'd actually argue the £699 option is better value. For an extra £100 you're getting an extra 8gb of ram that's worth almost £70-80, a 240gb SSD, and a slight processor bump.

I wouldn't want to wake up in the morning next to that!

Damn. I've been threatening to return to the PC for a while and being out of the loop for for over 10 years makes me confused. I would have snapped one of these up as it's not difficult to swap over to a more conservative case. Spending that so close to Christmas on myself however I might just have been waking up next to it!

Opening post
Comes with a GTX 1070, which is usually about £350 on it's own.
Looks fantastic for a starter machine for people who don't/can't build their own machine.
More powerful one here for £699 (although not much in it):
