Anything obviously wrong with this laptop set up?

Hey there. Just wanted to check if anything is stands out as a bad choice here for this laptop, going to be used for gaming and PhD work - which would require some software that isn’t too demanding but would require lots of different programmes to be open at once. I want to keep the price below £1000

Not sure what you intend to do after the 30-day trials but no need to spend money on anti-virus, there are good free ones and I am told Windows Defender is also very good. Microsoft Office is costly and not needed, either Libre or Open Office will be as good and are free.
