I'm not into gaming. I would like to get new graphic card for my 10 years old PC to drive a 3 monitor setup. Two of my monitors accept dvi port and the third monitor is a 4k monitor that supports Display port . My computer is primary be used for productivity tasks. I was thinking of getting rx 560 card. What other cards should i be looking at? What i am looking for is a low profile , 3 monitors supported and no external power supply needed. Thanks

GT1030 would be the better option, it's considerably lower power draw than the 1050, which will be necessary as there may be pcie issues. Many of those low power pc's had a 30w cutoff on the pcie slot, not the standard 75w.
YouTube uses VP9 for its codec. You'll need a card with hardware VP9 decoding support for the best performance which the RX 560 does not support. You'll need either a RX 5000/6000 card or an NVIDIA GPU from the GeForce 10 series and on, though the GeForce GTX 950/960 also has hardware decoding support.

My only problem is my computer psu supplied only 240w max and i need a low profile video card. Do you think geforce gtx 1030 or 1050 is good?
