Been running into this issue since I put together my new build.

Specs:
CPU: i5-6600K
Mobo: Asus Z-170A
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8GB DDR4 3000
GPU: Asus Dual GTX 1060 6GB
PSU: Corsair AX1200
Cooler: Corsair H100i V2

I've done all of the following:
Completely reinstall Chrome (delete all files as well)
Reinstall Flash

Feels like nothing is working. CPU isn't capping on usage, nor is RAM.
 
Solution
Try to disable hardware acceleration!

Open Google Chrome.
Click Customize and Control Google Chrome > Settings.
Click on "Show advanced settings" and scroll to the "System" section.
Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available" and restart Google Chrome.
