I have watched Netflix and Plex along with other videos and they all play great! I will say that I am upgrading the memory to the max though to help with running multiple things. I have a 16GB stick coming and there is 4GB onboard already(non-removable) and an SSD. But those are just me wanting to max it out, not necessary. If you are streaming over WiFi, please make sure that you are getting a good signal and that other devices are choking the bandwidth. Open WiFi like McDonald's etc. with no password that is free is the worst for streaming. If you have open wifi, again no password, at home that will choke your internet connection. Make sure to always have a password, the more secure the better. I also recommend that if you understand this, filter by MAC aka. hardware address of any wireless device that you want to allow to connect to your WiFi.

We recommend, first you check with you internet provider for the speed of your internet connection, then compare the requirements for internet speed of the streaming services use. Then you should check with the streaming services web sites themselves for their compatibility with Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration.
