i think the internal hd4000 is not capable of what i want with

if i want to look at a youtube hd 1080p videoclip it takes ages to go on 1080p...the little wheel of it keeps rotating?

is that a problem with internal graphics?

if i buy an seperate card i want something like passive cooled and working right out of the box

what card do u guys recomend me?

thhx in advance
 
The wheel spinning is usually just a problem with a bad internet connection. 4000 graphics should be able to handle 1080p video fine.

+1, the spinning wheel on YouTube is the video loading slowly. A cheap ass separate card would probably be worse than intel HD 4000 graphics. If you want better graphics then you need to look at GT 640 or GTX 650 to get any meaningful difference. Run some speed tests on you internet and do it several times at different times through the day. Peak times can really slow things down.

The HD4000 internal graphics work extremely well once QE/CI is enabled (although it takes some time and hassle). I have it running on another computer of mine and it really does a good job of HD video streaming as well as some light gaming.
