Hello

Am putting a box of old bits together to use as a media player mostly, but also will give game streaming a go from my main machine.

Cpu is a 1090t , 4 gig ram etc, but what graphics card should i look at. I know the lowliest cards are fine for 1080p media playback, but do i need a bit more oomph for game streaming. Would something like a R240 be good ?

Thanks
 
I stream games from my main rig onto my surface pro with no problems.

The PC being streamed to only requires to decode the video stream from the main rig as far as I am aware.
I've had no problems with my I7 surface pro. with onboard graphics.
