just bought this pc . HP 280 G2 - SFF - Core i3 7100 3.9 GHz - 8 GB -256 ssd. and i have a 50inch monitor, But when it comes to youtube streaming on full hd its not so nice
i done a bit of research and it comes to gt1030 but it also has variety like ddr5 or ddr4. I will use it only for videos or netflix no gaming

Generally the GDDR5 version is something like twice as fast for not a lot more money.

Everything else is basically just as expensive and older still.

New RX6400 and the GTX1630 are about the only late model alternatives.

I should add that I use my GT1030 to run my 65" TV. Perfectly capable of 1080p or 4K playback with little trouble.
Thank for the quick respond. I was afraid because the its one of this small pc's 180w and i wasn't sure that it can handle it. So your advice is gt1030 dd5?
