What will the standard mid-range PC be like in 2020, /g/? Will I be able to stream in 4K quality on a machine worth $300?

4k streaming is a meme. Companies just can't afford that amount of bandwidth only with terrible compression and even then your options for content providers are very limited.

this.
seriously, I get better speeds on my fucking broadband modem than from the DSL.
Live in shitty city of Detroit, have 150mpbs cable internet. Next year have access to new 2gig fiber.
2020 is only 4 years from the end of the next month. I don't think technology is going to change all that much.
Well, seeing how 1366×768 is still the most popular resolution on laptops. I guess 4k will be considered more like low-high end. 8k will be the best available. Pre-built 4k pcs will most likely be around $1200.

But that's only 4 to 5 years away, I somehow doubt that processing power will become 16 times more powerful

I thought pretty much all recent hardware support hardware decoding of 4k videos?
So... yes.
