This is your (sandy bridge) processor:

The bad news that it is not supported on Windows, nor is its graphics:

Sure, you can TRY and upgrade. You will likely succeed, unless some hardware blocks your upgrade/installation. However, you will be unsupported.

Also, 4gb of ram is a little light for Windows 10.

The good news is that your GT 440 does have windows 10 support, and the latest driver available is:

Version: 391.01 WHQL Release Date: 2018.2.26 Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit
