for the past few weeks if i have a Game open and try to watch youtube or twitch at the same time, around once every 2 minutes i get a HUGE lag spike on both youtube and my game, taking it to around 1 fps, its so frustrating, especially when my friends aren't online and i play on my own and i want to watch something at the same time,
if anyone knows any thing that can help, pleaseeeeeee
any feedback will be grteatly appreciated :)

Right Click a running flash video. Select settings. Disable Hardware acceleration.
Or use Google Chrome Browser.
Or get an Nvidia card.

I already tried the hardware acceleration but that didnt change anything.
I already used google chrome
and a whole new card is a rather expensive fix.

Rroff:
my components arent near any dangerous temp really, GPU ~ 60 CPU ~ 35
I did do some Litecoin mining a little while back and it started after that, but i havent opened the programs for it in weeks, could it be this?
and ive updated my drivers quite a few times to try and fix this

My internet down is about 4.5 megabytes and i will watch in the highest quality. I downloaded an extension that disabled dash playback so the video loads all the way just fine and doesnt give me many lag spikes when i do that.
However if i were to watch a stream or have utorrent seeding then i get them often.
No if i use my phone to watch things at the same time instead of the computer it doesnt affect it at all.

(Sorry i havent multiquoted before)
 
Nothing ive installed has caused this, as i havent installed anything, the litecoin mining programs i downloaded and installed about a month and a half before i started to get this issues
