The i5 machine (Dirt cheap on Newegg) I bought was a Compaq that was more focused as a work PC (Not a gaming PC). Windows 10 ran much better when I upgraded from 8g to 20g (2x8 and left in the 2x4). If Win 10 will run with 4g I have no question the pain will not be worth the $50 to drop in 16g. The integrated video costs nothing to try it. For me the issues were incompatibility. If you have the issues I experienced you don’t need a powerhouse discrete video card. Mame relies far more on the CPU then GPU. For me, I needed a smaller card to fit in the desktop case.
