How is this laptop and any other suggestions?

Hello fellow redditors,

It's time for me to get a new laptop and although I'm somewhat knowledgeable on this subject I'm sure you all know a lot more!

Is this laptop worth £500 ($790)?

Also I have a few questions about it. What is 'dual graphics'? Are the graphics cards dedicated?

If you have a better suggestion I'm looking at spending below £650 ($1000) and based in the UK obviously. I'm looking for nothing specific just the best bang for my buck, but want dedicated graphics.

Thanks for your help.

Dual graphics mean that it can switch off or on depending on need. The GPU itself is pretty weak. You might be able to play a game like Skyrim on the lowest settings. Older or less intensive games should run on it.
