From Frontier's Oddyssey page:
Minimum
So - can you? In theory, yes. Would it be good - probably not. You're scraping in just above the minimum requirements (RAM, VRAM). CPU and GPU performance are borderline. Whover is touting this system as "Gaming PC" is straining the boundaries of poetic license (or restricts their gaming to Minecraft).

Yes, go for 16 RAMDo you mean I need more RAM?
my specs are slightly lower then youres and mine run horizons amd od ok i aggree with more ram although i only have 8 myselve
sry just checked i have 16 ram but my graphics card is a nvidia 1050, but you should be good to go
4GB of vram is just on the low side for the gpu so you'll need to run the game on medium to low graphics imo
and I would not push the res past 1920 x1080

Its Windows 11 64-bit
If you can hold off buying for a bit longer you should, Oddessy is a little demanding in certain areas of the game, and demands are quite hard on the graphics cards and processors.
If you plan on running 3rd party apps, which I think most PC players do, I'd be surprised if they don't, you'd definately want at least 16GB RAM, and somewhere in the 3200Mhz range.
If you can get a Geforce 20 series as a minimum, your get a smoother transistion when doing stuff in settlements & walking about in stations, and still keep relatively high settings.
And if you can get an M.2 drive running about 2500mb/s write at least, everything will load faster too.
This is just my opinion though, I was running a GTX 1060 (6GB) with low end i5 and I was struggling to get good stutterless performance and suffering from chessboard graphics from space.

16gb would be best, 8gb is pushing it, the 1650 will work but not necessarily on top quality, you may need to play with the graphics settings to get decent FPS, personally I would go for something like a RTX 2060 with 8gb ram as a minimum if you can afford it. I would describe this as a "basic" gaming PC for modern games, not even "intermediate" as far as gaming goes. A few minor upgrades would make it so much better.

Lowly quad-core serves up big gaming performance.

That i3 is still a 4C/8T cpu not a true 6 or 8 core as recommended.
So I would take that review with a pinch of salt.
They paired the I3 with an RTX3090 which is rather unusual, and EDO is a really untypical game in terms of performance
I'm not saying they are bad cpus, but there is more than that in this context: low end cpu, low end gfx with only 4gb vram, EDO
