No graphics card?
Or are you suggesting the iGPU because if so the HD4400 is definitely not a good gaming GPU.

Problem is $440 is just not enough money unless you can get W10 and a few other components even cheaper somehow (used from friend?).

Like THIS GUY managed to do somehow (he got W8.1 for $10): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74-b4VYDCaM

I saw W7 64-bit Home for $50USD online and that can be exchanged for Windows 10 64-bit. Thus we have about $390 for the hardware.

I have rebates unfortunately, but the budget is just so tight I had to make very tough choices trying to get to $440.

Anyway, use as an example if you want. Maybe you can find a better GPU for used but if so be very careful as there's likely no Warranty. Make sure it has at least 2GB of VRAM.
