100% CPU USAGE when browsing Sevenforums with Google Chrome

Shade Koopa · 17 May 2016

New gaming rig set up, all is running well and what not. Now all of a sudden, when I try to browser SevenForums.com, my CPU is at 100% Usage. This last for a good few mins before I'm able to browse the page. It happens again when I enter a new thread or section of the website. Now, I don't get this issue if I disable the Adobe flash player plugin in Google Chrome.

So..anyone know why this is happening? Is it an issue with Google Chrome, The flash player plugin, or the sevenforums website itself?

It's not the site and we don't use flash, so I'd put it down to a chrome issue.

I see...well that's doesn't given me much help. And I don't see how disabling flash player in chrome//plugins is able to get it to work.

SevenForums works perfectly for me using Chrome (with or without FlashPlayer). If you have other Add-On's installed, remove them and see if performance improves.

I recall there is a GooglChromeCleanupTool or something like that... does running that solves your problem?
You can always uninstall that browser, use Firefox and have Chrome as a backup in a portable mode, PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable, and cloud drives got it and works fairly nice.
