Is firefox with ublock or brave better in terms of resource consumption?
Use Firefox. Brave is Chromium. Brave's crypocurrency stuff is shady, I need a browser not a crypto. uBlock (arguably the best extension) properly only works on Firefox. There is LibreWolf (Firefox mod) if you want ready to use, hardened browser.

Still no, try ungoogled chromium. Unlock is much more than adblocker, their page describes it better

What's the consensus on AdGuard?
Adguard is good, very good. Their rules are default included on uBO, they know their jobs well so getting very good product. As an alternative you can consider NextDNS
