What browser should I use after a new build? Waterfox?

I haven't been too happy with Firefox on my old laptop, lots of crashes and overall slowness, but I'm not sure if that's Firefox's fault or my laptop's. Should I try Waterfox instead? Or possibly Google Crome? Any recommendations would be appreciated.
 
I haven't had issues with firefox in years. Then again, I don't run a lot of addons either, just adblock and noscript. Chrome is my second favorite browser.
 
I went with Waterfox, it's the 64-bit version of Firefox. It's really snappy and I like it so far, we'll see how it goes after a month or two.
