Hello!
I am new to this distro but finding it quite odd, that my CPU is going wild everytime i go and open a firefox tab enter a webadresse. Can it be something with the ram i am using or do i need to update my BIOS?
UPDATE: Especially when i go back and forth 2 web adresses its really making the cpu work fan noise raise , other simple programs startup also tends to fire up the CPU shortly and the afterwards settling down. I saw on another post that people also find firefox slow maybe this is the case as well?
