I'm looking at getting a new laptop as I head into college. I'll want it to be able to handle all the basic functions of a PC (word processing, websurfing, etc.), but I'd also like for it to be able to handle some very light gaming (CS:GO on low settings?). I Have a $700 budget as of right now, and the two laptops I'm looking at are the Lenovo Flex 3 (i7 6500u, 8gb ram, 1tb hdd, geforce 940m) and the Acer Aspire E15 (i5 6200u, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd, geforce 940mx). I like the 2 in 1 abilities that the Flex 3 provides, both for the touch screen and because it would make it better for use with an actual keyboard and a mouse, but I'm unsure whether this should be good enough reason to purchase it over the acer with the slightly better graphics card and ssd (with open slot for hdd expansion if I wish to later on). Here are the links to the two laptops:

I'm also open to suggestions for other models if anyone has any. Thanks!
