Should I bother?

Silent Hunter 5 would not run well on integrated graphics and with small amounts of RAM as the Graphics Card takes the System RAM to use itself, therefor lowering how much RAM you have in total. Utilizing Virtual Memory will also damage performance unless you have a hard disk with a very fast read/write speed.

A processor with 1.65GHz will probably suffer extensive heating problems and that's if it even runs.

I would not recommend you play Silent Hunter 5 on this machine.
