Here's my chrome://gpu output (with acceleration enabled, if that makes a difference):
Graphics Feature Status Canvas: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable Compositing: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled Multiple Raster Threads: Enabled Out-of-process Rasterization: Disabled OpenGL: Disabled Hardware Protected Video Decode: Disabled Rasterization: Software only.
