Don't think that will hinder 4K video.

GT 1030 should not be considered for gaming. Minimum should be 1050 or 560.

I doubt someone will actually play on this.
Any chance this card can be used well for Physx as an example?

The 35 watt tdp is the only important feature of this card, a gtx 1050 is just slightly more expensive but twice as powerful.

HTPC with 4K and offices that want to switch to 4K (document driven places that currently use dual monitors could switch to a single 32").

Why do you make countless useless posts in NV threads?
Obviously this isn't for 4k gaming and you know that.
and you know integrated has limited abilities for multi monitor or even light gaming.
Pretty sure you are smart enough to already know those things so again, what's up with the useless posts?

This card has a 35 watt tdp, which means that it uses very little power and produces little heat compared to other graphics cards.
I can think of at least a couple of instances where this might be beneficial, can you?

I would use it for physx by those really buggy games, should be more then enough if that 64bit bus gives 70GB/s+

I don't understand why people continue to ask this question, when for the past 3+ years it has been known that GPUs have gotten good enough that having a 2nd GPU for Physx generally hurts performance.
