YouTube will drop frames on a C2D. For some reason video decode performance is much worse in browser than in a video player program. The same VP9 encoded HD video will drop frames in Firefox but playback without issue in VLC.
- Aleklart 3y agochapest nvidia 3d card with vp9 hardware decoding - 1030 / 950 / 1050 will help a lot for internet consumption on 775 systems.
- kitsunesoba 3y agoI don't know if it still functions, but there's the h264ify extension for Chrome/Cloniums and Firefox that forces YouTube to play an h.264 stream, which opens up hardware decoding for a LOT more machines including a bunch of laptops that can't have their GPUs swapped out.
