The current market is pretty well-populated with machines configured with inexpensive GPUs. You can choose from NVIDIA’s MX series that offers a bunch of GPUs (from MX110 to MX350), while AMD offers the RX 640 and a lot of good Zen 2 iGPUs. Also, your choice is even wider now that Intel has released their integrated Iris Xe Graphics.

Verdict
The GeForce MX350 (10W) performs well given the fact that it has a modest TGP – just 10W. Most light games like CS:GO, Team Fortress 2, League of Legends or FIFA run great on this video card at least on Medium and sometimes even on High settings.
If you want to play heavier games like Total War, ARK, Need For Speed Heat, For Honor, etc, the GeForce MX350 (10W) is good enough for Low preset in this scenario. Which is fine too for a 10W graphics solution.
