I would suggest to invest to more modern GPU, if you plan to stick in NVidia-family just for HW-decoding even the cheapest GTX 1050 would handle these files easily. But if you are planning to use Kodi DSPlayer with MadVR, the GTX 1060 for example could be a better choice: those clever MadVR-algorithms can be very GPU-tasking.
But why can i play them using windows 10 default player or even play them with my tv? I mean my js8500 cant have a better cpu and gpu than my htpc?
