    "Dynamic downclocking" seems to be FAR from perfect...

    I carefully watch FPS via Rivatuner and in-game FPS. Sometimes after surfing the web, playing a game after keeps your GPU downclocked. Depending on the game..it isn't that noticeable. However I watched this in Left for Dead today. My FPS was hovering in-game at around 40fps when it should have been about 80. Are other people noticing this? Any way to offset it? I am almost tempted to roll back to the alienware Beta drivers from May of this year:/
