Filtering by compatibility?

[hott]

I used to only have a Mac. But it's an older Mac and Steam doesn't work on it any more. I now have a Windows 10 tablet PC that I got for Christmas. I know some Steam games work on it because some of the ones I originally purchased for Mac are installed and working.

It has a 32-bit processor and 2 GB of RAM. When I go to the store and try to look for new games, almost all of the ones I get shown require a 64-bit processor and/or 4GB of RAM. Isn't there any way to filter so that the store will only show me games that will actually work on this device?

Earlier today I went through 3 pages of suggestions for me without finding a single game that would work on this device. I got pretty frustrated and gave up. Any help?

TIA!

I don't know if there is a filter for that yet.

First result of a google search: 32-bit games on Steam.

What kind of old-ass tablet uses a 32Bit x86 CPU and has enough power to run Windows 10, Steam and games?
What CPU does it use?

Go with a rule of thumb: old'ish games and less demanding games work, everything else doesn't. I just finished playing Dex, it would totally work on your tablet. It's not old by any stretch, but it's very non-demanding. It's not like bitness would be your only issue, even with a 64b-system you'd have to look at GPU requirements, CPU speed requirements and so on.

I got a tablet that runs Windows 10 but on a 32b-CPU. It's absolutely fine for old'ish and modern less-demanding games.

It's a brand new tablet.I got it for Christmas. I have no idea what cpu it has. It's RCA.
