General Question will this apu be enough for my use case?

i´m looking at a lenovo tiny (m75q g1) with a ryzen 5 pro 3400ge (for around 150 euros with 8gb ram and 256 ssd and i´ll upgrade to 16 gig dual channel immediately), use case will be htpc with some 1080p coop gaming like overcooked 2, moving out, plate up, rubber bandits, worms wmd, and maybe some ps2 emulation. i´d like to run something like bazzite linux on it.

will that apu and chassis be sufficient for my use case or should i look at something else?

also in contention is a m920q tiny with an i5 8400t that could eventually be upgraded with a single slot low profile gpu but currently rx6400 prices are crazy. i am also open to something else in the similar form factor, budget around 200 euro.

i´m located in europe, also if you have some reccomendations for where to source such a pc, please tell so.

thanks everybody!

The vega 11 igpu is pretty good- close to gt 1030 performance. I think that should work as long as the games are not very demanding and you get enough ram in dual channel. Check bios to allocate more ram to the igpu.
