It depends on sites you visit,however I have 9 tabs opened plus 4 extensions and its using around 325,000k,CPU usage varies from 0 to 3%,this is on Win7 x64.

My Firefox uses 300MB ram before I've opened any webpage, default tab is about:blank. Only plugins I use are noscript and delicious.

Only two tabs opened now and its gone down to 204,000k,I do have Firefox cache on max.

Had a few image display issues so gone back to v4.0.1 for now

I have not encountered any image issues so far,btw I did install all those Windows updates this morning too.

I could not go back to 4.01 its annoying compared to Firefox 5 beta build 6,everything is smoother in FF5,less HD activity too and bit quicker.

That doesn't actually answer either of my questions. That's simply you stating the same things in a different place, avoiding the same question but to reiterate the clocks are a driver issue which you can talk to amd about. The card is operating within specification (and still using less power than your cpu will) therefore almost a non issue.

I assume you bought a gpu for a reason, however if your sure it doing it's job and that little green bad is such an issue then put it in the garden. It will benefit you as much there as it is in your rig.

I might put 4.1 back on in a few days, but I've just installed fan filters and Im trying to see how much my temps has incrased. So Its quite hard with the gpu going up and down like a yoyo, and I cant go by my cpu temps cos they are stuck, so wont go lower then 40c. But it looks like 2c increase
