Dear Zoltan, No. 2 was best for me. Now it is 20 mB and OK No 1. Gave a filesize 1.2 Gb - I had already tried that solution.

This way you get a single band raster which is not the most beautiful as a background layer. You had better to make a color relief (Raster menu -> Analysis -> DEM) and a hillshade. Use blending of the color relief and hillshade to get a nice terrain background in QGIS 2.
