Other browsers work just fine which is weird, but I need to use Google Chrome for school-related work. I dug a little deeper into the problem and realized it was a problem with my processors. Using integrated Intel graphics makes the video choppy no matter if hardware acceleration is turned on...
When I turn on hardware acceleration in Google Chrome, my tabs flicker when I try to resize them. However, if I turn it off, my videos are choppy with lag spikes every few seconds.
Specs:
Processors: Intel Core i7-8750H, GTX 1070 Max-Q
Ram: 16GB
