Windows Central Question

Hi! I am looking for a that can I can use for school and also do some gaming on. I will provide some requirements that I'm looking for, then what I have it narrowed down to. Either help me choose, or if there are any that you know of that fall under this category, please list brand, model, etc...

Note: I am currently a college student. So Portability and Power are key here.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Requirements:

PRICE - UNDER $1,000
WEIGHT - 5.6 LBS OR UNDER
Display Size - between 13" and 15"
Resolution: 1920x1080 or 4K //(Doesn't matter)
CPU - 6th Gen i5 or i7 //(if possible)
GPU - NVIDIA GTX 960M w/ 2GB //(or higher in GBs or type = 970M, 980M, etc.)
RAM - 8 GB or higher
Storage - If HDD, Preferably 1TB at 7200 RPM | If SSD, 256 GB or higher
If Computer has both SSD and HDD, even better!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here what I have it narrowed down to:

Dell Inspiron i7559-2512BLK or Asus ROG GL552VW-DH71

Help me choose or provide another computer that meets or exceeds these requirements.

Thank you in advance!
