What's the cheapest graphics card with an HDMI 2.0a/b port? Would like to purchase a cheap GPU that can output HDR. Currently seeing this 1030 on Newegg is the cheapest one I can find.

 

Any suggestions? Bonus points if it's DDR5 and not DDR4.

What do you want the HDR for? If you're planning on watching Netflix in HDR then it won't work cos they require a GTX 1050 with 4GB VRAM.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.

Somehow I find it hard to believe that netflix requires a video card to run... But yes to view Netflix, BMO, YT in HDR.

If you have an Intel 7th gen CPU or newer with an iGPU built into it then that also works.

 

By the way, Netflix HDR only works on Edge or Netflix Windows 10 App.

Yes okay that makes sense. I have an i3-8100. Was really just looking for the cheapest way to output the HDR content, i.e. HDMI 2.0 a/b output.
