Laptop for programming and light gaming

[Mastermind252525]

I need a laptop for college and I'm not really sure where to start. I would like to keep it around $1000, since I have a pretty beefy desktop. I'm going to be using it for programming and light gaming, so a 960m would be fine. I need it to be a pretty thin and light as I will be traveling some with it. I would prefer an i7 to an i5 and I definitely want an SSD. 4K screen would be a nice plus as well. Thanks in advance

Or buy the microsoft signature edition with a clean install (no bloat) of windows 10 for the same price.
