Chrome is great as long as your PC is reasonable. As mentioned above, each tab is its own process - which is good because if one page crashes it doesn't take down the whole browser, but it does mean the whole thing is more resource hungry.
What I like best is that I can follow a link on my phone, then open Chrome on my PC and it has that page ready to jump to. And vice versa.
Firefox and Opera are also excellent.
IE used to be terrible, but IE 9 and 10 are miles better, but still not as good as the others.
