    YouTube videos stutter, don't load, internet connection fine.

    Okay,

    so my internet connection is fine, did a speedtest and it was 3.0mbs.
    But YouTube videos load awfully and stutters and freeze after every 20 seconds...if I stop the video to let it "load", it doesnt load. I've tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling all flash and it didnt help. Same thing happens in Mozilla and Firefox as well.

    Any ideas?

    Are you loading in HD version of the video? That would take a while even on 3 Mbs connection...

    if it hasn't completely buffered, its your netspeed. But if it has completely buffered and still stuttering, its either your RAM or CPU.

    That used to happen to me on my laptop. Then one day it just started working fine again. It was only YouTube I had issues with too.

    Same with me - sometimes they work fine and others, not so much. I don't know if it's something on their end but it seems when I'm having issues with this, others are as well.
