First, what I have:
Windows 10 Pro
Core i7 5700HQ
16Gb DDR3 RAM
2 mSATA Samsung SSD in RAID 0
Nvidia GTX 980m
What the problem is:
Whenever I load a youtube video, my laptop slows down like crazy. And I mean, everything slows down. As if I'm using my laptop at 2 FPS. Mouse jumps. The youtube video itself is super choppy as if playing in slow motions. Everything becomes slow. As soon as I close the youtube tab, everything is back to normal.
I tried doing some quick research before posting this. And here's what I've found out:
-It's not adblock or any chrome extension. I tried running youtube on incognito mode with all extensions off, same problem happens.
-As a matter of fact, it isn't exclusive to chrome. I tried watching a youtube video on Edge, and the exact same thing happens.
-I cleared all the cache and history on chrome, didn't make a difference.
-I thought perhaps is my bitdefender but I honestly can't tell. I did a full system scan with it and it found nothing.
Here's what my task manager looked during the problem:
Those huge mountains on CPU and DISK 2 are during the time I had the youtube tab up. Needless to say, watching a youtube video is impossible regardless of the browser I use.
This problem began today (as in, it was perfectly fine yesterday). I haven't installed any new program or anything so honestly I do not have any idea what might be causing this.
Does anyone have any idea what could possibly cause this problems and perhaps how to fix it?
