Will these laptop specs run Red Dead Redemption 2, Skyrim, and Stray ?

None of the "Can I run it" websites that I have found have the newest CPU's included.  

Will I be able to run Red Dead Redemption 2 with these specs ?
Any idea what kind of FPS I should expect ?  I'm guessing it can run it, but not well because of the graphics.
(I think RDR2 of the 3 listed in the title have the highest requirements, not sure about Stray because its pretty new, super cute game where you play as a stray cat.  I don't think I'll have any problem with Skyrim with these specs)

Processor : AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U Processor (2.70 GHz up to 4.70 GHz)  SEE: www.amd.com/.../11666
Graphics : Integrated AMD Radeon 680M
Memory : 32 GB LPDDR5-6400MHz 
Storage : 2 TB SSD M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 Performance TLC Opal
Audio : Dolby Audio speaker system with Dolby Voice (2 x user-facing mics)
Audio Chip : High Definition (HD) Audio, Realtek ALC3287 codec
Ports :  Two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, One USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, One USB-C 4.0, One HDMI 2.0b, One Headphone / mic combo

Need to know anything else ?

    Ok, after some research, I think it's likely to work on low quality settings and at 30 to 60 fps in 1080p.  You basically meet just below the recommended requirements for the game.

    Rockstar requirements:

    Benchmark for your integrated GPU from Notebook check, which I find pretty accurate.  Note the comparison graphs which includes other GPUs including the ones listed by Rockstar:

    Thank you James !  That is very helpful.  Yep, looks like its well above minimum, but not quite up to recommended requirements.

    I always run games through this site here

    It'll give you a good estimation

    If you haven’t bought it yet you could always take it for a test run and refund it if it doesn’t work.

    I think you're good on Low, maybe FPS in the 40ish range.

    It would be best if your system could add a dedicated graphics card....

    Thanks Kita. This site is very helpful.

    Yeh, I know.  It's annoying that I cannot.  It's a laptop, I'm almost positive that I cannot add GPU to it. 
    It's this one 21CQ000GUS

    I'm glad you found it helpful!  You'll have to check back here and let us know how it goes!

    The first thing that stood out was the intergraded graphics card. Peter's advice is spot on. For gaming, a dedicated graphics card makes a big difference and is a must for other apps like photo editing etc....Yeah a lot of laptops don't have an option to add a gpu. You can probably find a cheap gaming laptop with nvidia 1650 card between $400 -$600 during this holiday season and be above the mininum for most games playing in 1080p.
