If it's just for basic display then the 710 is fine. If you're watching 4K content or doing any casual gaming then the 1030 is as low as you'd want to go. Bear in mind that for the price of a new 1030 you'd probably be able to pick up a lightly used 1050, which is a big step up in performance.
My suggestion at this price would be to ignore new card and look at wohat second hand cards you can find, as you'll get something vaguely good then. Otherwise you're basically wasting money.
If you're stuck on low profile cards, then I believe the best for it is a RX560 2GB (AMD.) If you're just getting it for display purposes, a 1030 would probably fit the bill better.
Have you tried a different web browser, I have a similarly weak laptop that struggles with all sorts of full screen video when using Microsoft browser but runs sweet as anything on chrome playing back videos. Although if it is shutting down sounds like something is overheating.
After fully reading your OP I'll revise my statement, get something like that second hand! Just don't buy these cards new as they're utter garbage and companies shouldn't be paid for it! You'll be about to pick them up second hand for 1/3 I'm sure!
