[SOLVED] Youtube stutter every 20 seconds or so

Hello i'm running gnome on an older i7 and it was working fine up until a week or so ago, now youtube stutters every 20 seconds or so.. gpu is a 1070 Ti, tried a few nvidia drivers.. it doesn't stutter on xfce.. VLC and Plex don't stutter just youtube.. I tried disabling all gnome extensions but it still stutters.. any idea what else I could try?

turns out it was an extension lol now just to track down which one..

edit: ended up being astra system resource monitor..

have you tried multiple web browsers to see if the problem is specific to one ? what changed for this to happen ?

If you have NoScript you must add permission for youtube.com, googlevideo.com and jnn-pa.googleapis.com
