Padfone X: Chrome is slow only while docked topic

So my dock had been regulated to "plugged in all the time charging dock" for my phone for the past few months. Yesterday I needed a reminder why I stopped using the thing so I picked it up, docked it, and started to use it for a bit.

It feels snappy when using the UI to browse apps or if Im in Play News looking at articles. But once I open Chrome to browse the internet, that is when I notice the issue. Pages seem to load fine, but when I try to scroll down them, it hangs for a few seconds and insta-loads the part of the page it scrolled down to. This is really annoying. Again, this is mainly when scrolling up and down pages in Chrome.

I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue or know a possible fix.

Thanks
