You might want to upgrade it with a graphics card tho, because you're limited to 75hz above 1080p, but it isn't worth it that much. ( lemmy.world )

75 hz on a core 2 duo? Please show me your ways!

I can't show it anymore because I broke the motherboard while putting a new one in, but it can handle 1440p on 75hz pretty good, if you disable the blur effects, videos above 1080p can sometimes cause problems if they have heavy encoding like vp9 or av1

On my laptop running Plasma, it says the maximum fps is 60 but current fps is going up to 100 in some cases (based on the 'show fps' option in system settings). What does this mean for me?

Probably that your display maxes out at 60hz but the graphics driver is rendering extra frames for increased fidelity

That's very possible

Have you tried hyprland with animations on?

Yeah they're probably decoded in software because I doubt that the integrated graphics supports hardware decoding of those recentish codecs.

At that point, just put a gt1030 in it.
