Well if it can run 1080p movies with no lag, that would be great.

There's only one review out that did not try bus clocking it, but lists that AMD has said the 200GE is Dram overclock capable.

The most limiting factor on this APU are the low clocks https://www.techspot.com/review/1698-amd-athlon-200ge/

There is hardware much worse than this (even by AMD) that could easily play 1080p videos, even 60FPS ones. I'm sure this APU could even play 30FPS 4K movies, assuming the GPU drivers are working properly.
