Hi all

Just got my new rig up and running (ryzen 1600 new install of windows 10) and installed chrome and adblock plus as normal and I'm getting some strange slow downs.

Most web pages are slow to load, pictures are slow to load too, and youtube videos load about half way then just stop completely.

I've checked my connection speed and its all normal 50mb down 15mg up, ping around 7, nothing has changed there.

If I pause adblock the symptoms go away. I've tried 2 different adblocks with the same results.
Also tried in firefox and edge but they suffer the same.
I tried going for 2 days without an adblock but cant stand it.

Never had these issues on my old system.

Any one else having the same problem and know of a fix?
 
Try uBlock Origin, it's much lighter than ABP and can do a lot more as well.

Which motherboard is it and does it have 1 or 2 LAN ports?
