Firefox with iGPU struggles with 4K videos on YouTube, causing high GPU usage and lag. The issue isn't just the GPU capability but how it handles codecs.

I understand. I really need this because I'm generating a lot of output on my 4090, and I'm using just one monitor. Probably I'll have to switch it back to the main GPU for Firefox.

I turned off the hardware acceleration in Firefox and it functioned properly now. It looks like the CPU is compensating for the change.

You had to watch an 8K video to notice the spikes.
