Vlc media player issue maybe computer problem?

[Callum_227]

Hello all, first time posting on the forum so forgive me if it's in the wrong location. 

I'm trying to set my Intel nuc (i3 4010u 12gb ram) up on the TV (lg B9 oled) for my parents to watch game of thrones when I'm not on the playstation, but I'm getting stuttering playback with artifacts and it's unwatchable

I've looked online and tried a few basic fixes including buying a new displayport to hdmi 2.1 cable. But it's still unwatchable I'm wondering if the pc just isn't capable of 4k video playback I've attached some photos of the problem as well as the pc specs. 

Its not a big deal if I can't get it to work, I just thought I'd let them enjoy my Oled when I'm not using it.

Does it only happen with VLC?

I just bought the codec extensions for the windows player to try that and there's not artifacting but it's stuttering and skipping really bad.

4k playback, with no dedicated GPU is asking a lot. Lower the resolution, see if the problem goes away.

 

I know the first HTPC I built I figured it was just 1080p, and for emulation, onboard graphics would be plenty. It wouldn't handle YouTube "properly".  I know onboard graphics have come quite a ways, but still...

Changing the resolution to 1920x1080 produces the same results. 

I can only assume I'll need a more powerful NUC or maybe a ryzen powered "nuc style" pc if they make them as ryzen has really good integrated graphics.
