Just add replace the 4GB user accessible module with a 8Gb or 16GB stick, costing $30 and $50 repectively.

No this doesn’t perform as well as a discreet gtx 1650. Mx350 maybe. Soldered ram ( 8gb isn’t enough to realize the true potential of this chip). You can add more but not running in dual channel mode.
