[SOLVED] GPU implications for non-gamer upgrading to 32" UHD monitor

[ericeales]

I am about to upgrade my monitor to an 32 Inch UHD (3840 x 2160) 4K Monitor - LG 32UP550N-W with VA 4ms 60Hz Display, AMD FreeSync

I have an Acer Aspire TC-885 (Win 11) i5 @ 2900 with 12 gigs ram. It has Intel UHD Graphics 630

As I am not a gamer, will my present graphics resource be sufficient for non-gaming purposes, watching video movies on my new monitor?

If so what might be a good GPU choice. I have 2 slots available - PCIE1X and PCIE16X - both 3.3V shared PME

I'm taking this off Speccy's Motherboard summary, and hope it provides sufficient information for any reply.

Thanks, Eric

4k HDR video playback is supported on all Intel UHD 620 and higher iGPUs since 2017. You should be good to go.
