Advice on Asus FX504GE i58300H & 1050 ti

Sercs

Hi, I can pick up the laptop below, I've reserved at 700, but with trade in of my old laptop which qualifies I can get an extra 100 off 600 in total, from Currys here in the UK.

Can anybody advise me if this is worthwhile? My current laptop works fine, albeit I cannot play games but the only games I'm interested in playing are titles like Football Manager, CS:GO, any AAA titles I would play on my XB1 X.

Wondering if this warrants this kind of money? I'm happy with my current laptop but its just under 7 years old and figured an upgrade is due. I'm in no particular rush, however given once my current Asus goes past 7 years (nov 2018) I'll miss out on that extra 100 off. Would I be better off waiting for black friday or is this as an all rounder a great deal?

In summary:

Is this a good spec for £600?
Is it worth upgrading at £600 or waiting for black friday?
Is it worth spending more, once an appropriate deal comes up on a 1060?
Will this last me 5 years?

I do plan to upgrade before the end of the year regardless, I'd really appreciate the advice
