For just streaming and transcoding movies/video, I would suggest any of the
following. They are all sub 100 dollar cards, Potentially passively cooled,
and low profile options are available. they are also recent enough to have
modern transcode/decode options for movie/video watching.
GeForce GT 1030
Nvidia GTX 1050 mini
AMD RX 540/550
Even the AMD Radeon RX 5300 that is on the map for release later this year.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
