APUs for gaming

I have been recently looking into buying a laptop for my girlfriend. It would be preferable if it was capable for gaming for titles such as company of heroes and sims 4. I was looking into the HP Pavilion 15-n268sa 15.6" Laptop, but I'm unsure of its gaming ability. I know my pc hardware but really the world of laptop performance is a mystery to me and I was wondering if someone could compare the gaming performance to some pc hardware that would be brilliant.
Also some alternate suggestions wouldn't go a miss in the £500 region

I think it would be able to play games like the sims 4 but with the detail settings at medium at most.

COH (first one) should run on any dedicated GFX from the last 4-5 years!
COH 2 - good luck :P You'll need it unless you have something in the current mid end.
