Asus X54C Laptop - Good deal?

deanonumber10

I'm looking to buy a new laptop on a budget of around £400 and came across this on Amazon.

Asus X54C 15.6 inch laptop (Intel Pentium B960 2.2GHz, 8Gb RAM, 500Gb HDD, DVDSMDL, LAN, WLAN, Webcam, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) for £392.94

However, not knowing too much about computers, I'm not sure if its a good deal. It seems to have good specs for the price.

Can someone have a quick look and give their opinion. Thanks

The price is about right for what it is. It's a good brand, Asus are relatively reliable. 8GB is loads more than you'll need, 3GB to 4GB is normal. The B960 is high-mid range according to https://www.cpubenchmark.net/mid_range_cpus.html

You might be better to consider this one, which is also Asus with a roughly similar processor and 4GB RAM: https://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/ASUS_K53E-SX195V_1102603.html That is £339.97 and for £49.97 you can get a 3 year warranty with it:
