Not looking to max out settings or anything but this will run newer games right?
Also would just like another opinion that it probably contains the newer intel HD graphics and not one of the older models

PC's without a discrete graphics chip are not good gamers.
A Desktop with a discrete graphics card is better.
Buy a laptop if you need the portability, but a good gaming laptop will be expensive.

The problem with those sorts of laptops is they advertise high performance, show off their CPU and large amounts of (relatively) cheap memory. For a roughly equivalent price, you could get a Lenovo Edge E440 with i5 and dedicated GeForce 740m, which will outperform just an i7 in games.

just ask for adding a gtx 660 in laptop version and it will atleast be future secure up to 7 years according to your requirement.Gotta say that eight generation is quite expensive.
