Very old Ultra Small Desktop HP Elite 8000

Hi! I can buy such mini PC (25x25x6cm) for about 25USD. Inside is Motherboard with Q45 express chipset ( integrated graphics GMA X4500 ), CPU E8400 (dual core), 4GB of RAM and 2,5" 500GB HDD (not SSD). I know that it is ancient build but I think about game streaming. Local using Steam Home Remote and Google Stadia. Is there any chance that it will work on this PC? Thank you in advance for your advice!

Hello @Kempes,

I am not sure this will work that great.
If I am looking to experiences with Intel HD4000 are not working I cannot imagine this chipset will do any better because it is 2 years older.

One thing you should also have to stream is ethernet internet or a stable 5GHz wifi connection.

Thanks for reply! That was my worries that without external graphics card it cannot handle Stadia. What a pity...but if HD4000 is not enough so what kind of Intel's intagrated graphics can do this? I'm looking for cheapest possible solutions of course Happy New Year!
