Is your SSD and NVMe or SATA device?  You can shink the Windows 10
partition using Windows "Computer Management" --> Storage --> "Disk
Management".    Select the Volume and look for "Shink Volume" in the menu.

I recently installed Fedora 31 in a dual boot configuration on a Dell
Desktop
with NVMe SSD and UHD graphics.  For laptops, graphics and networking
are sometimes problematic, but UHD graphics should be OK, so if your
network works in a "Live" USB system you should be in good shape.

I've used Windows shrink volume for years to make space for Linux and never
had a problem, but Windows 10 is not robust.    It also does behind the
scenes
snapshots and disk cleanups, so I find disk usage goes up and then down by
30 GB following updates.
