Able to play most titles and most day to day tasks. Handles Minecraft quite well, even with some moderately complex mods. Struggles a bit with Conan exiles, maxed out before the 8GB RAM or GTX 1050 (mobile). Handles Microsoft word like a champ! Would definitely benefit from more RAM, but still does alright with this setup.
