I built this system recently with a Ryzen 3 3200G and 8GB of fast RAM, but sometimes YouTube gets slow or freezes in my Chrome tab. If I refresh the page, it works fine again. It happens very rarely. Is it because of my internet speed, bugs in the browser or YouTube? Or do I need to update my drivers? I checked "Updates" and Windows says everything is current. Just a question: is this just about the internet or the browser?

Have you tried playing that same YouTube video on different web browsers such as Firefox or Edge?

It happens every few days or so, which makes testing on different browsers hard. But if you just refresh the page, the bug goes away. Back when this happened before, it was because my internet was slow today. The lag came up while I was in the rain. I think it is just a slow internet problem.

Definitely happens often. Sometimes when using YouTube on my Android phone, it gets slow for me. That could be the internet connection or maybe a problem with the server where YouTube is running. By the way, what kind of internet are you connected to? Do you use an ethernet cable or Wi-Fi?

I'm trying to use an ethernet cable and get around 70MBPS while it's nice out. I connected the cable directly to my wifi router, which means no separate line for my computer. We also have another PC playing YouTube on that same router. It really does feel like a lot of pulling in there.

It is fine for me to slow down when it rains because I am using an ethernet cable.

It's an issue with your ISP, but I don't think they can fix it easily. Maybe the signal goes down just after it rains, or maybe everyone else has put their devices on standby while staying inside, which slows everything down.

Yes, rain can mess up your internet connection to the ISP. But that's on their side, so talk to them if it happens. When it comes to YouTube, do other places like that too? Does the game look laggy or slow when there is a storm?

So far, everything is smooth except for sometimes slow internet that makes loading take a while.

Sure enough, it's not something wrong with your house Wi-Fi connection. This problem came from the internet provider (ISP) or Google's servers instead.
