I think 4 years at high settings at your requirements is a bit too much. Try checking benchmarks online.

You should probably get the Arctic MX-4 Extreme thermal paste and silver warranty too, for £14 extra these two make a difference.

i noticed that many laptop monitors have a refresh rate of 60hz so that means that i cant see more than 60 fps in games? so if my gpu can transfer say like 100 fps in a game it is rather pointless? whats your opinion?

You won't get 100fpd on demanding games with the gtx 860m at high or ultra

I've opted for the 860 gfx in my latest order too and after reading a lot of info and reviews about them we should be fine on high settings for a good few years with maybe the odd game being an exemption. I'd think about adding a SSD to the build as they can make a big difference in gaming load times etc and overall make your system a lot faster.
I'd also agree with this -
