3 year labour but only 1 year parts?
So basically it's a 1 year warranty with 3 years service (as long as you buy replacement parts yourself)? Makes no sense to me...

There were lots of issues with the R290 AMD cards at launch as they got the drivers wrong. That is effectively sorted now. Even so, don't get stock cards and get ones that the manufacturer's have added their own dual / triple fan coolers and they will do for most people.

That's certainly the case for high end graphics cards, but low/midrange ones not so much. You can often get the performance of a top end card by combining two cheaper cards of less than half the price.
With regard to the PCIe slots, what you say is true, however, very little ever needs the full capacity of a PCIe3 16x slot, there is virtually no performance drop from going down to 8x or even 4x in some cases.
