Chrome getting worse.

Go to solution Solved by SpaceNugget,

Tested on the warframe page. I didn't even realize how unsmooth chrome was. Firefox is way smoother and loaded faster, but has some strange behavior with background shadows randomly disappearing.

Alright,Ive been wanting to ask this community a long while,but I never got around to it so lets do this.Over the past few months,Chrome has been gettings more and more unsmooth.Some pages feel sluggish(some become normal on other browsers),1080p60fps videos on YouTube drop frames when on fullscreen on my 2nd screen(a LG TV,dunno if thats the issue),and drop from an average of 0-50 frames in my main monitor.Mind you these issues dont happen at all in other browsers,such as I.E or Mozilla.Now my quesiton is,has ANY of you gguys experienced this?Please,let me know,my OCD is KILLING ME!(and yes Im diagnosed with OCD.)

P.S:Yes,I reinstalled chrome a couple of times,both 32bit and 64bit.Yes my computer is enough to handle Chrome(8Gigs of RAM,FX-4350,750Ti etc.)

Odd.

Chrome has only been shite on iOS for me.

A friend of mine,having a similar problem to mine,also has noticed sluggish pages.I could give you a link to see for yourself,if you'd like.

Wait nevermind your not. I used to be on a hard drive and chrome was slow, but then when I changed to an SSD everything was faster,  including chrome.

Notice how sluggish it feels when scrolling up and down.Running the page on IE doesnt feel sluggish.

I personally would install windows on the SSD. Not only is it good do have a fresh install, but your C drive is where libraries and other programs are stored that programs you use rely on. Besides, its not that mush space to put windows on it.
