Google chrome hardware acceleration

[Epire45]

hi, when hardware acceleration is active on any browser I find a slight lag when I go up and down with the mouse wheel. How can I fix this I tried to disable hardware acceleration and it works however I would like to use with hardware acceleration I have an i5 1135g7 and an intel iris xe shared video card

Is there any other thing you use hardware acceleration for asides browsing on Chrome?

[Epire45]

how do i see ?

[CharlieItuah1]

I mean do you use any applications or software that need hardware acceleration may be for your work or something else that you do? Or you need hardware acceleration just on Google Chrome.

no apps that I use without hardware acceleration are visual studio code, logitech software, avg antivirus etc. but none of these use hardware acceleration, then through intel support assistant I downloaded the latest graphics card driver even before updating the driver it made me am done

So that means hardware acceleration is not all that big of a deal for your laptop usage asides Google Chrome. I understand. Maybe you don't need it that much then since other major apps work well without hardware acceleration. Maybe you should leave it off so it does not tamper with your system.

but is it a problem that having a powerful processor and an intel iris xe graphics card does not work the hardware acceleration?

[CharlieItuah1]

I don't think it is anything to worry about at this point. Applications like Adobe Photoshop and After Effects use hardware acceleration majorly due to the RAM that this software is hungry for. So it should not be a problem for you at this point.

it may be that on windows I have to put maximum performance instead of better energy efficiency windows 11

I believe you should be fine then.
