So while everything I say below still stands, and I say a lot (sorry about the length), you should probably go for a different model.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just to be clear, I'm by no means an expert when it comes to things like this.
However, I do have some experience when it comes to trying to get demanding games to run on lower end laptops (I actually have a similar model to the one you're talking about).
And what experience I do have tells me this. Aww hell no!
...kinda
The ASUS X751NA uses an Intel HD Graphics 505, which is an integrated graphics card.
As a general rule of thumb, integrated graphics cards suck when it come to gaming.
You'll be able to play videos no problem, and games that aren't too graphically demanding should be mostly fine (though you'll usually have to play with reduced settings).
However, high end or poorly optimised games will be a struggle to run.
Keep in mind that the graphics card we're talking about was released in 2015, and even at the time it wasn't meant to handle high end games.
Generally speaking, games like Overwatch, or God of War, or Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, or whatever will not really be an option.
You might be able to kinda sorta play some of them if you mess with the settings a lot, but they'll look awful and have terrible frame rate.
If you're only talking abut being able to play less demanding or older games like Little Nightmares, or Metal Gear Rising, or Okami HD, maybe even Dark Souls: Remastered (don't qoute me on that one). then you should be mostly fine (though you likely won't be able to play them on the highest graphcs settings).
Also, almost any 2D or top down game shouldn't be a problem.
So all in all it depends on what kind of games you intend to play, but since you're working on a budget, it's good to keep in mind that you won't really be able to find a good gaming computer that is also a laptop.
Some concessions will have to be made somwhere.
Also, in regards specifically to Dead by Daylight.
As I mentioned above I own a similar model (a slightly worse one actually), and it runs well enough to play. It caps out at about 40 fps and looks like a PS1 game, but it (technically) is playable. So there's that.
Again, I'm really not a voice of authority on this matter, I'm just saying what my experience has been like on this subject. You should probably look into this more throughly and in a place other than some game's steam forum (like a gaming website's technical forum).
Hope this helped.
You should be absolutely ashamed of yourself, claiming something so ludicrous when OP clearly lacks some understanding in the IT department.
She came here to ask for advice, not to be hoaxed with.
Dead by Daylight might just start up, but it will run very poorly, even with everything turned down as low as possible.
The main reason for that is that it doesn't have a dedicated graphics card, but rather an on-board solution, those are always seriously lacking in power.

However, you could get a weaker gpu in it, like the GTX 1050ti and still manage at lower settings on games, but... There doesn't seem to really be any price difference on newegg that I can see, so a model with a GTX 1060 makes more sense.
unless they are literally going to live on that laptop and travel/ moove extremely frequently then a laptop is NEVER worth it over a desktop. the price to performance alone is enough to bury a laptop in the grave. i lived on laptops for ages until i bought and built my own pc.
Few things you should look at when you buy a gaming laptop:
1- cpu speed
2- RAM
3- GPU
4- air flow system, how, and where the air comes out from, would it gain heat if it was used on certain surface, would it get dust in it fast depending on your environment you're living in, or the country.
and to be good buy the i7 ones as well.

for example this laptop i bought it around 2-3 years i think, still working great till now, it has few downsides
1- monitor is only 48hz so i cant even see 60 fps if my laptop can handle it
2- airflow is good but after sometime the filter itself turned to be against the laptop and helping the heat to be contained inside to the point of reaching 93 degrees on cpu/gpu, but i did my research and learned more, removed the filter and now running games on the high settings reaching max of 75-84 degrees max, which is acceptable.
as for DBD, it can run it low 1080p at 40+ and 720 at low max fps almost always, high/ultra 40+ can have few times of 30-35 if fixing gen.
