They announced upscaling support in Chrome at CES 2023.

>The new feature will work within the Chrome and Edge browsers, and also requires an Nvidia RTX 30-series or 40-series GPU to function. Nvidia didn't specify what exactly is required from those two GPU generations to get the new upscaling feature working, nor if there's any sort of performance impact, but at least this isn't a 40-series only feature.

Interesting though that it's working with your GTX 1660 Ti. Maybe Chrome is implementing a simpler upscaler as a fallback for older GPUs?

Check your chrome://flags for anything that looks related.

Its not even running on my 1660 Ti. It's running on my integrated intel graphics. Dedicated graphics is completely idle during this. Aaaand theres nothing related in the Chrome Flags at all.

Are you sure fixed function decoder/upscale stuff is reported in GPU utilization graphs?

Not in Task Manager, but at least something would show up in GPU-Z like a clock increase over idle, memory bus usage, GPU utilisation, thermals, power draw, etc etc.
