I think its a good purchase as well. however for gaming you might consider getting a more dedicated "gaming laptop" so to speak like one from clevo or gigabyte

I was looking at notebookcheck.net and it can play games at high settings, not 60 fps or anything like that, but not critically bad
 
I would not say it can play at high settings. I would say comfortable high settings would be 40fps+ ideally 60fps which this will certainly not do.

You will quickly find yourself lowering the settings and playing at low/medium for locked 60fps which is WAY more enjoyable than high settings at a fluctuating 30fps.
