I have recently bought a laptop that i'll be using for the three things I mentioned. Here are the specs :

intel core i3-5015u
intel graphics 5500
6 gb ram
1tb storage

I will be using fl studio, garrys mod, and office. do you guys these specs are good enough to handle these three things decently?

Thanks in advance!

2/3 are good, gmod might not work that good but it will probably at least boot. You have to understand that that CPU is a laptop dual core with integrated graphics so It isn't designed for gaming. That said if you don't mind sometimes sub-60 fps and medium to low settings then you can play some games such as Minecraft, gmod, gang beasts, etc. without problem.

here's my experience with laptop office+gaming
i5-3337u
Intel 4000 graphics
1tb sshd upgrade
8gb ram upgrade

office stuff works good, gaming is limited to 20-30 FPS MAX, video rending isn't very fast, not good at all for anyting above 480p (720p and compressed 1080 are pushing it.)
can play cs:go all day long, warthunder on ultra low and TF2.
I imagine yo'd have about the same or slightly better experience.
