The platform is fine but go with 16 GB of ram. You won’t regret it but will regret it if you don’t.
Ram is essentially the lubricant that helps the computer run smoothly. You can buy suitable RAM after market at lower cost, but this is not a place to skimp. Also be sure that the video adapter supports a resolution that gets along with your monitor.
