LAGGING on Higher Resolutions

Hi, I do not even know if this is the right topic but please bare w me =P

 

So whenever i go with higher resolution than 720p (like 1080p /+) video start lagging and i have no idea why exactly... 

I was wondering if it was because of lame hardware i have (CPU -> E6300 - Intel one)...

Because when i was working at work i saw new computers w new monitors capable of 1080p support but i could actually run videos at 4k pretty easily (i know that it is kinda useless 1080p monitor and 4k videos (lol)) but anyway more pixels are always welcomed.

But the thing was that they ran very smoothly and i believe their CPU was i5 or sth similar...

 

And so we came to conclusion if CPU is the key factor which matters if the video will be able to run smoothly on higher resolutions or not ?

or does that depends on monitor itself and video support protocols?

For desktop workloads Core 2 Duos aren’t bad (the E8400 is wonderful). I use dual 1080p monitors and a 1050p monitor with an E8400 and a GT 710. My setup can’t do 4K, but seriously, 4K on a C2D? That’s unreasonable. 

Main System: Phobos

AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (8C/16T), ASRock B450 Steel Legend, 16GB G.SKILL Aegis DDR4 3000MHz, AMD Radeon RX 570 4GB (XFX), 960GB Crucial M500, 2TB Seagate BarraCuda, Windows 10 Pro for Workstations/macOS Catalina

 

Secondary System: York

Intel Core i7-2600 (4C/8T), ASUS P8Z68-V/GEN3, 16GB GEIL Enhance Corsa DDR3 1600MHz, Zotac GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1GB, 240GB ADATA Ultimate SU650, Windows 10 Pro for Workstations
