ahh..... the 2D down-clock issue :)
yes its solved most ppl's problem in this regard....... its the primary card or core down-clocking that's the issue, the slave card or core is fine at whatever clock as it never gets used in the 2D environment..
its when the primary card or core attempts to match the 2D clocks of its partner thats when the trouble starts...
for dual monitors the primary core clock must remain @ 400mhz while idle...
for single monitors im sure ATI power-play should set the primary core to 300mhz (on 5 series cards anyway)
but yes...... these new drivers do have the clocking issues resolved, but if you try to OC it'll revert both cores back down to 157mhz again , so there's still work to be done...
