This is weak, especially for SL.

That all depends on expectations. In one computer I use, I have a GTX 960 2 GB desktop card that runs SL well enough to have shadows enabled most of the time. It's real limitation is only having 2 GB video RAM. If anything is weak in the laptop specs, I say it's the CPU, but that's going to be the case with most laptops anyway. Laptop processors often have a relatively low frequency compared to their desktop counterparts. While they do have high boost frequencies, they can't maintain them for very long due to thermal constraints. SL is very much limited by its single core performance. 

That being said, I think the laptop if fine. It should get great framerates with Advanced Lighting enabled and shadows off. For occasions where one wants to take nice photos, the shadows can be turned on.

Thank you everyone, I know it's not the best but will be better than my current one that is very old, I use SL to hang out with friends and I normally don't do clubs or crowded places, I will have windows 10 installed 

Thanks everyone for your kind help 🙏

I guess.

I like to have all of the graphics on the highest settings all the time, including shadows. I sometimes forget not everyone is like me. 

I'd like to as well, but for the time being this is all I can afford in Argentina.
