so the combo went well, until yesterday i started to notice that whenever I have firefox (just standard firefox home page or GPU-Z (may be others but havent tested every application), my 7990 (GPU 2 and 3) will just shoot up to 99% usage....

no problem with MSI afterburner running on it's own, neither with asus AI suite.

i have only start noticing it after i start playing around with Heaven 4 after i added application settings. i suspect it is something i added to CCC without realising it?! any thoughts?

Download the latest beta of MSI Afterburner. Install it, run it, follow the prompt and restart your pc.

Go to settings and tick disable ULPS. Click ok and restart your pc.

Leave it disabled. You get a slight performance boost with it off at the expense of a slightly higher power draw (about 10 watts) at idle. :)

Make sure you're using the latest 13.10 beta 2 drivers. You will need to re-disable ULPS upon each new driver install.
