My first iMac - AMD Radeon R9 M380

Question

My first iMac - AMD Radeon R9 M380

Hi everyone,
This is my very first question here in the Apple community.
So, I hope I can find the answer for my questions.

I just ordered my iMac with the following specs:

3.2 GHz Intel Core i5

8 GB of RAM
1 TB Fusion Drive

AMD Radeon R9 M380

OS version: Because I've not received my iMac yet, I'm not sure whether it's MacOS Sierra or El Capitan

So, I'm finally escaping from the "dark side" and getting my first Mac computer.
I usually use my computer to do work on MS Office (such as translation etc.), watch movies on Netflix and videos YouTube and play music etc.
As for the graphic card AMD Radeon R9 M380, is it good for a user like me who's not a gamer?
Will I face any glitches or something while watching 4K movies or something?

Also, is it possible to watch Blu-Ray movies on my iMac

Thanks

iMac, macOS Sierra (10.12)

Anything purchased directly from Apple now will most

likely be shipping with macOS Sierra.

As for Blu-Rays, you will need to purchase a separate Blu-Ray/DVD/CD

drive and purchase a third party app to play them. There are several

that are available. Make sure you purchase a drive that is supported

by the player app as it seems not all BluRay drives are created equal.
