This issue has become annoying for me for sooo long time.. at first i couldn't detect the problem and what is causing it.

Um..yeah, i guess i should tell what's the problem.
Whenever i enable AERO theme and open Chrome
The chrome starts lagging (not being smooth like normally is)
after some time, and it stops and get back to normal after
i minimize and maximize it again, than it stops and function normally.
but after some time it lags again and i minimize and
maximize AGAIN...and so on and so on... it became annoying...
in fact it's happening again and i LIKE Aero theme...

So the problem happens as i noticed, while aero is on, but there are no chrome problems when classic theme is on...

Please give me suggestions :/ my head hurts....
 
Because i love chrome and Aero theme, but i dont know what's causing this
Its not browser (i think it's not) problem is in theme, because, as i said, when i set to classic its normal, when i use aero problems emerge..its nothing special or alarming, just annoying ANNOYING! -_-
 
Reinstall chrome then.
Otherwise update windows if you haven't done so.
If it still isn't fixable, reinstall windows.

Or, just switch browsers.

Chrome reinstalled couple of times. Windows instelled fresh yesterday

That's all good, but i want to find out what's causing this and dont know ayone with this issue..
 
Maybe its just a case of not enough ram or not enough power under the hood to run both

But does that mean that my problem would be constant...because it happens at random.

And about my PC specs...

CPU: Intel Pentium G620 dual cores @2.60GHz
RAM: Kingston 4GB Hyper X @1333 MHz DDR3
VGA: Saphire Radeon HD6770 1GB GDDR5
....
 
Given the fact that Firefox also never fixed it's memory leak bugs....

Got to love Opera.

And yep, without specs of your pc, it's hard to tell what's the problem.

I don't like OPERA really..i tried all browsers and Chrome i got attached to.

As for Specs, i wrote them above
 
Oh yeah your specs are more than adequate, so yeah I would put it down to drivers, that's the only thing I can think of it being, that or something hardware wise is starting to fail but that still wouldn't put it exclusively with chrome. Its quite perplexing really
 
yeah, sounds like old drivers, or something with the video card itself, Aero uses the video card more than the classic mode. so anything weird going on with the video card will affect the aero desktop theme
 
Hm..strange...when i open ATI catalyst "automaticly check for updates" is checked and it's saying "AMD catalyst 11.8, last update 22.10.2013." so judging by that, my graphics driver is UP to date... don't know about motherboard drivers though....

Oh and my PC is relatively new..about a year and a half

And yeah, its Chrome exclusive problem

Edit: It came into my mind...maybe NEW drivers are making problems...could it be?
