Since Windows 10 supports "multi-display", you can use it by simply connecting an external monitor to a PC running Windows 10.

Afterword
A TV equipped with an HDMI terminal can be used as a second monitor for a PC.The TV becomes a second monitor simply by connecting the PC and TV with an HDMI cable.
If you have an extra laptop, you can browse YouTube, TVer, etc. on a big screen just by purchasing an HDMI cable.
Even if you don't purchase FireTV or Chromecast, the surplus PC can replace the media receiver.
You can also use a Bluetooth mouse for remote control.
