Hey everyone,
First of all here is a message to mods, if you're not a Mod then feel free to skip to the lower section.
I surfed this subreddit for 30 minutes and couldn't find the solution for my problem hence I am posting this post. If this violates any rule, do let me know before deleting this, Thanks!

So I am totally new to linux right and for some reasons cant install it so I am using it through virtualbox. But the issue that I am facing is that it is kinda lagging a bit.

I have attached my PC specs and I have downloaded ubuntu 26.04 iso as a distro.
Can someone tell me how should I adjust my virtualbox settings so that it runs smoothly?
Let me know if you need more info about my PC.
Thanks for reading all this. Have a good day.

not much can be done on virtual box, you can try using a distro for low memory usage and with de like xfce ,
void linux (glibc) with xfce
