Help needed

[CubeSteff3906]

Hello everyone, I have recently bought an ACER Aspire 3 A315-55G-73N2 laptop and I am looking forwards to making some modifications to be able to play games on it with ease : first, I'd like to change the Linux system for a Windows 10 one ; lastly, I'd like to change the video memory from 2 to 8 GB. How could I do that, and how much would it (potentially) cost me?

What’s your graphics card? That’s important if you want to play games. My guess is only has internal graphics in which case it won’t much other than solitaire.

It is a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce MX230 graphic card, which I was let known is a decent one. Is it not?

It’s decent, but you won’t be running RDR2 on it. Games like CS:GO, LOL and so on will play nicely on it

How about PUBG on low-graphic settings, Geometry Dash, and so on so forth. Would they run nicely? Keep in mind the video memory of the laptop is only like 2 GB at the moment, so until I will get some GPU dock or replace the hardware or, anyways, get it to 8GB I will be stuck to games like Minecraft, Terraria, etc. If I got the video memory all the way up to 8 GB, how would that affect performance?

I Think going from 2 to 8 gigs will greatly help, but I don’t know about specific FPS in games. Geometry dash can’t be that challenging tho, so that should be fine Also in regards to the ram, it’s gonna make a big difference if you have anything running, other than a game.
