Youtube playback lagging on new laptop

Hello, I've gotten a new laptop and i noticed that whenever i watch a youtube video i get a small lag every few seconds. This is really disturbing and happens no matter the quality settings or the performance settings of my laptop. Youtube!s stats for nerds tell me there are 0 dropped frames and the audio doesn't lag. This issue also only happens while using Firefox. I've tried switching codec to h264, enabling double buffering, disabling hardware acceleration. Nothing's helped so far so I'd be very grateful for any recomendations, I wouldn't like to switch browsers, but I'd have to if I didn't resolve this.

Asi mate narušený profil Firefoxu. Vytvorte si NOVÝ profil Firefoxu ako test pre kontrolu, či váš súčasný profil nie je príčinou tohoto problému. Ak váš súčasný profil nie je príčinou tohoto problému, prepnite sa po kontrole späť na ten pôvodný (asi default) profil. - Windows - Spustiť (WIN+R) - a tu vypísať firefox.exe -p (alebo "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p) http://imgbank.cz/images/2014/09/04/Firefox_profil_novy.jpg
