Im not using Chrome or Chromium. However relying on GPU based videodecoding or encoding is not a good situation in my opinion. The best solution is a performant CPU and you should be good to go. GPU based coding is always limited by hardwarecodec- and applicationcompatibility especially on linux with it's fragmented API landscape.
Videodecoding in software should work with good performance for all videocontent available through a webbrowser nowadays on a system that has been bought within the last five years. Videoencoding on the other hand is something that really needs work on linux. The availability for vaapi encoding is far too limited right now. I am talking about things like steam remoteplay and videorendering on linux.
