This is probably a very basic question but I am in need of some help…  
I am currently using a surface book 2 with an integrated intel UHD graphics plus an NIVIDIA 1060 with 6GB of memory.

I am looking at a new 2-n-1, however, most of them only come with an integrated graphics card, and most of them are the Intel Iris Xe, somewhere between 8 and 16GB memory. Will Setchup work ok with the integrated graphics card?

Get the additonal RAM if you can
