[SOLVED] Youtube Videos lagging on a 4k Monitor?

[unitedOrange]

Hello!

I recently built my gaming pc, since I bought a 4k monitor, I decided to test it on any 4k Youtube videos.

But the videos were extremely lagging, even I turn the video quality to 2k on Youtube.

So I'm wondering what might be the issue here to cause lags? I also have a RTX 2060 GPU. Will that be my internet/wifi's speed?

Thanks a lot!

Most likely Your Internet or wifi speed. I think you need 20mbps or more to stream proper 4k content

If you see this:
1080p video stream -> normal
1440p video stream --> stutters
4k video stream --> stutters
Try also different sources e.g. netflix, youtube, etc.

If behavior is similar
yes! it is your internet or networking connection.
