My first thought is that you might be able to boot Win10 with 1GB of RAM, but there won't be much of anything left for your applications. Swapping is on the slow CPU hungry SD card too. It's not going to be fun.

Windows 10 does have memory compression, so maybe that helps in low memory situations like this?

I have some HP Stream 7 tablets. 1GB RAM, shipped with a full Windows tablet/desktop setup. Windows 10 runs better than Windows 8 did.

Comparable to a Raspberry Pi 3, I believe.
