Need some advice on a new laptop. I use it for mainly school but also some gaming. I'm not concerned with running anything on super high graphics as long as it's passable. I'm thinking about the Lenova Thinkpad15 with the following specs:

Operating system: Windows 10 Pro 64
Battery: 4 Cell Li-Polymer
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 840M 2GB
Processor: Intel Core i7-5500U Processor( 2.40GHz 1600MHz 4MB)
Memory: 8.0GB PC3L-12800 DDR3L 1600 MHz
Bluetooth: Bluetooth Version 4.0
Network Card: Intel Wireless 7265 (2x2) AC
Hard Drive: 256GB SSD SATA III

Thoughts for this one? It'll cost me a bit less than $1000. Is that a good choice and/or price?
