    When I was playing WoW I just noticed that when I play Flash Video it downclocks the GPU to 200/500, just wondering if there is a way to turn this off, because it causes WoW to lag when in Windowed mode and watching video. Thanks.

    Put it on High Performance? Don't watch youtube when you should be focusing on your raid? ;)

    Check your Powerplay settings.

    Maybe try turning off Hardware acceleration in the Flash player.

    Lol, well not when videos like this exist YouTube - DEATH METAL PARROT

    Yeah seems like that is the only thing to do, found some other forums online I guess its a problem with the Desktop cards too with Driver 10.6. So probably will be fixed next driver release. But that is the fix that I can find, thanks.
