I was looking to get the Dell XPS 13 with the i3-5010u (3m Cache, 2.1Ghz) and 4gb of ram with intel hd 5500 graphics and was wondering if this would be enough for light-medium gaming and heavy programming. Not like triple-a on ultra but maybe 2-3year old games on low/medium, or minecraft with 60 frames. I am also looking to do heavy coding, and maybe even unity programming. I was also going to Dual-boot with Ubuntu. Any input is appreciated

This machine is good enough but the Ram seems a bit not enough for heavy programming. Try to get a machine with 8GB ram and remember that your GPU will take ram from your system ( this is second reason to take more RAM for your computer). Another things are okay :)
