"Unlock Faster Web Browsing with Your Browser's Hidden Setting"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Gizmodo
Hardware acceleration is a hidden setting in most modern web browsers that can significantly improve browsing speed and performance. By utilizing hardware components beyond the CPU, such as the GPU, specialized audio, or AI processing units, the browser can offload graphically intensive tasks and free up CPU resources for other tasks. Enabling hardware acceleration is typically recommended, but it can be turned off to troubleshoot performance issues. The setting can be found in the browser's settings menu, and keeping the browser, operating system, and graphics drivers up to date ensures optimal performance.
