s1keI don't exactly know your situation but you could build a mini itx pc which is much smaller than normal tower cases and is much more ideal for travelling (many lan players use these).

If you wanted to, you could build a $600 mini itx compuer to move around and spend $100-200 on like a chromebook for schoolwork, internet browsing, etc.

Now, if you're moving around like crazy and moving around essentially a box and your monitor & peripherals is too much, let's talk about just a laptop. The laptop you chose has the processor ability equivalence of a Haswell Pentium G3258 from Intel. The 960m is not to be mistaken with the gtx 960 as it as not nearly the amount of power. The 960m has the performance of the old 650 ti. Knowing this I was able to find out that you most definititely would be able to play TF2 at least a 100 fps, more if you have the right config.

BUT I found a better laptop and might I suggest this
This laptop is better than the one you have listed, despite not having the ssd.
It comes with:

i7-6700HQ (better than desktop processors such as the skylake i3-6100 and the haswell i5-4460) -- this is a really good laptop processor --- good for tf2
1 TB Hard drive --- not as fast as the ssd in the laptop you chose, but you get more storage.
GTX 960M --- same video card as the laptop you chose
8 GB of RAM --- same amount as laptop you chose
YOU SAVE $230, $60 CHEAPER THAN LAPTOP YOU CHOSE --- much cheaper than your laptop

All hardware judgements were made using userbenchmark.com -- real human benchmarks on hardware

I would suggest reading the reviews of any laptop before you buy make sure the majority of the reviews are good (there will be a few that are just unlucky), and the majority of the ones from the laptop I chose are good.

I spent like a half an hour making this so I hope I could be of some help to you. To be honest when you said your parents were split it kind of made me a little sad because it's the holiday season ya know and I realize I'm fortunate enough to have a full blown family to spend the holiday season with, so I figured I should put my knowledge and help someone out a little extra tonight. This was the best laptop I found and it's got an exceptional deal on it so I let you know. By all means you can continue to look for better ones but if I were you I would pick this up, as the deal ends in a few days.

This really helps a lot. I will look into both the msi laptop and the mini itx pc. Thank you so much! :D
