I would also change IPV6 as you will have to different DNS the one on IPV4 will be cloudflare and IPV6 will be your normal DNS, i have both my IPV4 and IPV6 on cloudflare and have not had one slow down on youtube at all is faster.

What happens if you change the DNS server address in Windows but not in your router? Could that lead to a conflict? Could your router override your Windows setting?
I checked out the speed of DNS servers 1.1.1.1 & 1.0.0.1 using the Gibson DNS benchmark. The default Virgin Media DNS address for my cable Ethernet connected desktop PC to Virgin Media's fibre broadband is much faster and 1.0.0.1 is faster than 1.1.1.1.

WOW! Have been using the Google DNS for years. This is incredibly faster for day to day browsing and Netflix. Thanks guys!
Just check what is actually being used:
New Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 fastest, privacy-first consumer DNS service - Page 5 - Windows 10 Forums
As far as I know Router setting over-rides windows setting anyway forcing connected devices to use Router configured DNS
