i've been off nvidia for a good few years now, and cant say i've missed any aspect of it.<br class="">
i run a celeron nuc with the N2820 CPU (<a href="https://ark.intel.com/products/79052/Intel-Celeron-Processor-N2820-1M-Cache-up-to-2_39-GHz" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" class="">https://ark.intel.com/product<wbr class="">s/79052/Intel-Celeron-Processo<wbr class="">r-N2820-1M-Cache-up-to-2_39-<wbr class="">GHz</a>) and that seems to handle 1080p without issue.<br class="">
<br class="">
so, it's a yes from me; on-chip intel is fine. i cant really think of much scenario where onboard wont handle tv playback as the current intel claim to run 4k.<br class="">
<br class="">
only thing i would say is do a bit of research into the exact cpu/gpu combo your getting. Intel have broken a few hardware features like (for example) broken 24fps playback, or HDMI audio issues. The issues do seem well known if you search this list, or head over to the intel community forum.<br class="">
