This isn't really a Creator question, more accurately just a Qt 
question, so this is the wrong mailing list.

That said, I'll say that 30fps at that resolution is going to be pretty 
much trivial for any modern hardware. You should choose the solution 
that makes the code easiest for you to write, not the one that runs fastest.
