YouTube, especially on a browser that's gonna try playing the video in VP9, is gonna struggle on that hardware. Use a browser that'll force the video to play in its AVC form if you want 60fps.

I'm not aware of any browser that does that by default, but one can install an addon for Firefox that does make Youtube play videos in H.264-format. The addon in question is https://addons.mozilla.org/fi/firefox/addon/h264ify/

Firefox defaulted to h264/AVC when I just left it to hardware encoding on my setups. Not saying it's gonna happen on every setup, but it might for OP's.

Also, pre-Chromium Edge might do that for him, too.

I have a low-end laptop I got for free at home and it doesn't do H/W-encoding of VP9, so even 480p videos on Youtube stutter on a default-install. I had to install h264ify on it for Youtube to be useable.

I don't use Chrome, so I have no idea if there's a way of forcing Chrome to use H.264 with Youtube instead of VP9. Probably not.
