Even low-end GPUs like Intel's integrated ones or Mali GPUs on ARM can
use OpenGL well these days.
The latest releases of Mozilla Firefox include a GPU-based rendering
engine which works very well with my integrated Intel UHD 630 on a 4K

If Firefox can do that (with its multitude of supported graphical
elements, animations and effects), Emacs certainly can do it too.
