I can scroll all the way up and down that is fine, I just scrolled slowly so that you guys can see the lag. Did you want me to scroll all the way up and down?
Edit: Did you want me to re-record me scrolling up and down and quickly?
Itās hard for me to tell that itās lag. It looks more like screen flickering. Did you try i915.enable_psr=0 as a kernel parameter for screen flickering?
Maybe its a lot more noticeable if you actually scroll and you compare it to Windows.
Yeah the video recorder is making it very gltichy for some reason.
No I am using default settings, do you want me to enable it?
The problem is like i said before is that all these things in the Arch wiki are there but you have to decipher what they are trying to tell you. Is it used with Intel driver or modesetting or just a kernel parameter used irregardless. I have difficulty with the Arch wikkiā¦gives me a headache looking at it to be honest. Itās not that user friendly IMHO.

Ok sure I will see if it is enabled or not and I will get back to you, thanks mate.
It is my understanding that the modesetting is automatic if you have the intel package removed.
xf86-video-intel package
This is based on what i have read. Iām not an expert on it.
Edit:
Do you also have xf86-video-vesa removed when trying modesetting?
So I have xf86-video-intel but removing it doesnāt seem to enable modesetting as I was stuck with command line interface after a reboot so I had to reinstall the package.
All good I understand 
No, I only removed this package xf86-video-intel when attempting to try modesetting.
Do you have this file?
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "modesetting"
EndSection
Nope but I have now just created it.
The problem in the Arch wiki under Intel is that you have to look at the variables they have and is it with modesetting or with Intel drivers.

Yeah I know it is quite tricky.
Are you having fun yet? I know myself i would have gotten the hammer out by now!

Ok so after adding this file and a reboot, it doesnāt seem like any change has happened.
OK so you know previously I was saying that with brave it was still laggy, it turns out I was doing something wrong when enabling the flags for brave, so I am glad it is just as smooth as Opera. It is just this tiny little choppyness I need to get rid of.
Lmao 
Thanks for the link mate, I will need some time for this. I am also not going to be available for a little while.
Donāt forget also that video you showed Intel vs Modestting. They have two files for the x11 xorgā¦

Oh yeah thanks I will check it out and see what to do
Hey man so at this particular part of the video, the problem is that the guy asks you to type this out:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
in the video but instead in his file, he shows that the Driver is Intel, not intel.
Here is an image of the video. So which one should it be?
Edit: I have done everything the video has suggested and it has made no difference 
Edit: It may be possible it has improved it even more, cause it seems close to what I get on Windows, but it is still buttery smoother as on Windows. It still feels choppy and it is noticable, especially on 60 fps YouTube videos.
What i see is two different files.
First One
/etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Section āDeviceā
Identifier āIntel Graphicsā
Driver āmodesettingā
Option āAccelmethodā āglamorā
Option āDRIā ā3ā
EndSection
Second One
/etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/modesetting.conf
Section āDeviceā
Identifier āmodesettingā
Driver āmodesettingā
EndSection
Edit: The output of this isnāt aligned the way i typed it. But i donāt think it matters?
In the video it actually shows these contents under /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/20-modesetting.conf, not /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf, this file was the 3rd file and I had to add this:
Section "Device"
Driver "Intel"
EndSection
But what I am confused by this, am I supposed to add intel or Intel after the Driver, because the guy askes to write intel but he wrote Intel inside the config file (as shown in the image) so I am not sure what am I supposed to actually write. I hope I make sense sorry if it I am not clear.
Sorry i have a spelling mistake in the first one. But what you are looking at is the files for if you are using the Intel driver.
There are two parts to the video. One is Intel Drivers and the other is modesetting. What i have written is what i see for modesetting.
Check my spelling by the way. When i type it doesnāt always come out right. 
What you have there is for Intel drivers. You have to do one or the other! Are you testing Intel or modesetting?
Edit: I suggest you watch the video again. Of course i could be looking at it wrong too? But i donāt think so?
