Youtube stuttering only for 1080p60fps videos

A week ago, I noticed Firefox installing updates. The next time I restarted my laptop which has an old A6-5200 APU, Youtube videos on 1080p60fps started stuttering. My Edge browser is up to date and NEVER had issues with the 1080/60 videos. My graphics driver is also up to date. (The graphics driver support was discontinued a year ago and I've tried the latest driver which completely fucked up my PC so I had to restore it to the latest supported driver which was a year ago.) I toggled on/off hardware acceleration which did nothing.

Had this problem 2 years ago on Chrome and eventually I believe a Chrome update fixed the issue. This is NOT my fault. I hope u folks at Mozilla fix this issue. Hate having to use Edge for youtube.
