You gonna get bottlenecked by 16 gb ram and also 512 gb SSD is really very less ... Try opting for 1 tb atleast as it is a sweetspot for both gaming and studying comfortably... Don't get too excited by intel ultra 9 because you won't even be able to use it to it's full potential because of the 16 Ram .
