  1080p is perfectly normal and a good target for that kind of setup, especially if you have a 4k monitor, since it scales perfectly.

  You might have heard this before, but you can use Gamescope with upscaling to 4k. It&apos;ll give more performance than native 4k with in game fsr.

  My current HTPC is an Optiplex 7010 I believe. Bought it on eBay for $115. Then began the cheap eBay upgrades. First up was the fastest processor the mother board could handle. Then of course max ram. A GeForce HDMI output graphics card. A Blueray DVD burner. An SSD along with the 500gb hard drive it came with for storage. Boots fast and streams everything I&apos;ve tried to stream. I&apos;ve found that I use it for more than just streaming movies. I even do my taxes on the 70&quot; screen. Spread everything out on the coffee table, kick back on the comfortable couch, and fill in all of the blanks
