would this card help watch videos and movies fluently?

Sure , its almost overkill for movies use . Newer games will run but you will have to scale down the graphic settings . But for movies and videos its fine.

Hi Terry, That's kind of a tough question without knowing the rest of you system specs. The faster your CPU and the amount of system Ram you have will greatly affect how your video card performs The system that I have this card in has an AMD FX 4100 quad core CPU, 8 Gigs of Ram and a 1 TB hard drive running Windows 7 (64 bit). I also have high speed internet connection (xfinity from COMCAST)for streaming videos. I have no problems watching videos and or movies on an ViewSonic HD monitor.

Stuff like flash (youtube) is very processor (cpu) dependent; I recently put this in an old machine which had an old intel core 2 duo e4700 and it was fine. So compare that with your own setup.It did seem like it was stuttering if anything else was running. It might be worth it to put another 10 dollars into the video card, but if all your going to be doing is running youtube video it's fine. (Although seriously consider bumping up slightly.)

This card will do a couple of functions that others will not. You must have the right drivers. I will not tell you in this review, contact me directly.

that video card you named is like a computer inside another computer.....with a whatever quad-core Processor is enough for a excellent performance

Absolutely. Those are basic functions for a tablet and they're things all decent tablets do very well. The Asus Memo does an excellent job with videos and games.Barry

Yes, I think the previous user response about RAM is important too. I have this card and easily get 70-75fps consistently. If you buy this card you should be set for some time...

Not at all, the only performance issues you would have is the device reading the card. Like you said, a pass through

I'm not sure it would work great. This processor is barely capable of running any games, let alone stream video at the same time.

i agree with the three answers before, this computer run smooth videos but will depend your internet connection. Regards to all

Yes, sorry to say, I think it might. I do not use it for movies but after you asked I tried Netflix and it didn't work very well at all. But it might be my connection speed.

Yes. You can at least hook up 2 monitors through the card with many different viewing options. I think you may even be able to hook up 3 at a time if you needed to by connecting a monitor to your stock on board video as well.

I believe it will, it boosts processing power for 1080 playback, it plays everything I have thrown at it in my Apple TV , bluray files, mp4, mkv, just no experience with streaming Hulu , or Netflix , but I'm sure the principle is the same

I just tried viewing a Netflix movie using the NB-505. Even upgraded to 2GB RAM, the video is decidedly jerky. I would not recommend this for Netflix. However, it plays local video just fine.

Yes but the card will be bottlenecked by the speed that your motherboard can read the data.

not if you expect to do any graphics or game playing. the bandwidth is not sufficent and it is not driven by your graphics card.

I believe it would. If you need extra power to drive video it will do you well
