Doesn't seem like very good specs for newer games honestly... I'm not getting good google results on the CPU. It's very hard to make a laptop do any real gaming well unless you go nearer to a $1000 or way beyond...... some games would probably be OK, especially older, but it would be more important to know the GPU since that'll probably be your bottleneck.
Basically if it's not dedicated, it will rely on your system RAM anyway and if it's the very basic, your frame-rates will be downright painful in some graphics heavy games. FPS's won't like this and you'll probably die more because you miss your shot. At around $600, you generally will only get the basic graphics.. I think I paid $850 to get something beyond basic a few years back. It doesn't make it impossible to game, it just limits what you can reasonably expect out of it....
Staying plugged into the wall and turning off any power saver settings will also help you some. Power saver bottlenecks the CPU to save battery. Also don't block the vents and play on a flat surface so it gets adequate cooling so you're not overheating the machine (don't play on your blanket on your bed for example)... seems like a no brainer, but a lot of people miss this and don't realize you can slow down your computer if it overheats too much or it can even make it shut down.... that tends to happen if your computer runs somewhat hot to begin with. Intel's are generally cooler so it's probably less of a worry for you...
