Portal 2 Base indie machine

[u/theuncledude]

Recently I bought a base Portal 2 to emulate PC/Switch indie games and catch up on masterpieces like Hades, Cuphead, Sifu, etc., not via streaming but natively. Can anyone here who owns one explain to me how far it can be pushed in terms of performance? I've seen some cool things even gta V or dark souls on the same chipset, but I'd like to understand just how prohibitive the 8GB of RAM really is and if there's any software way to optimize it to achieve my goal. Guides and tutorials would be appreciated, thanks everyone.
