What is min or decent spec for just watching YT 1080p 60fps on an external 65 4k led TV?

Does GPU or CPU plays a role in that ?

I have a plan to buy a laptop just for YTP and Netflix.? I will connect it to a 65 4I led TV.

Right now I have  lot of flag almost not watchable experience using my Samsung laptop i5 2430m 4Ram NvidiaGT 520mx.

Now I can view max only 720p 30fps only. Above that is not working and lots lots lots of lags.

 

Is there a setting I can do or just buy new specs.

Get more ram. That laptop is good enough for 1080p 60fps. Also maybe monitor the temperatures. It's an old laptop and it might just be overheating.

There is really no strain to watch youtube videos.  You can have a POS laptop or computer with 8GB ram and be fine.  It will in no way take away all your resources.  Just couple percent depending on device and what not.

Aim for 8gb but before you even do that monitor the temps as I am quite certain it has dried up thermal paste. Also have you ever blown out the dust from the laptop?

finished. cleaned it and removed the dry thermal paste and applied a tooth paste :) hopefully the laptop will not burn. (i learned that from Linus team vid).

the result: 50% less lag in 1080p 60fps. but huge improvement in the system speed in terms of using the browser and time to open pages and navigate between them.

all good for now.

 

thanks a lot guys specially Jaslion.
