However, for $20 more, https://slickdeals.net/f/17243062-lenovo-ideapad-3i-laptop-15-6-fhd-1080p-ips-touchscreen-intel-core-i5-1155g7-8gb-ddr4-memory-256gb-ssd-350-free-shipping is a better choice with brighter 300nits TOUCH IPS display and upgradable memory. But adding a 8GB stick to it is highly recommended.
So please don't share the intel misinformation that is being shared out there.
This is AMDs low end cpu they have out there. Aka Intel celeron equivalent and last I checked those things are half the performance of this
And on top of that to debunk any ideas about this being a recycled 2019 chip, it's on a smaller process node, made RECENTLY
This is a budget cpu that gives performance of an i7 4790k. That's amazing.
Perhaps you shouldn't toss your computer around so much...? Every brand has had a dud model or two in its lineup with specific issues, but to claim HP laptops have hinge issues spanning 4+ generations? Sorry, don't buy it.

Need something better. This is a low cost CPU using the older Zen2 chip. Good for keeping the price low, low power usage, but not great for any real gaming.
Look for a 7730u system like these deals...

https://slickdeals.net/f/17175019-hp-pavilion-15-15-6-fhd-ips-ryzen-7-7730u-16gb-ddr4-512gb-ssd-489-99
The 7735u and 7740u are faster but the 7730u is usually cheaper.
Would it run it well? Meh. In performance mode you can't likely get 60fps.
The CPU is a 7520U, AKA Mendocino, a quad core with an architecture from 2019 (Zen 2). It's iGPU is a pathetic 2 CU.
This laptop can not play games, and will struggle with even heavy normal use. I'd avoid it as its E-waste when you can get vastly better laptops for $400+

Specifically for this laptop, it is not explicitly stated that this has a IPS display according to HP page (https://support.hp.com/us-en/prod...ku=8F1A6
I further checked HP website, this is actually a SVA (Standard Viewing Angle) display.
In HP's world, UWVA (Ultra Wide Viewing Angle) is usually or always an IPS panel, whereas SVA is usually or always a TN panel.
The Lenovo $350 deal (IPS touch) is a better choice taking into account of this crucial difference.

As for processor performance, this "Ryzen 5 7000 series" processor is below the performance of a Core i3 and Ryzen 3 that were released 2 full years earlier, in early 2021:
