For your QNAP TVS-h474, which you'll be using for Plex, choosing the right graphics card can significantly enhance your transcoding capabilities, especially if you're handling 4K content.

Based on the information available, here are a few recommendations:

NVIDIA GTX 1650: This is a popular choice for NAS systems like the QNAP TVS-h474. It offers good performance for Plex transcoding, especially for 1080p and 4K content. It's relatively power-efficient and should fit within the power and space constraints of the NAS.

NVIDIA Quadro P1000: If you prefer a professional-grade GPU, the Quadro P1000 is a compact option that fits well in smaller NAS enclosures. It’s great for media transcoding and has good driver support.

NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti: This is another solid choice for media transcoding with Plex. It offers good value and performance, and it’s known for being compatible with many NAS units.

Ensure that whichever card you choose, it fits within the physical dimensions of your QNAP unit and doesn't exceed the power supply's capacity. If you're planning on heavy use or multiple streams, a more powerful card like the GTX 1650 might be the better choice.
