When I had problems similar to this it was because of notification tray pop ups and Steam notifications. You can customize the notification tray to deactivate all of those icon's notifications, it made a pretty big improvement for me, although you do sacrifice functionality from other programs. Steam notifications can be turned off inside steam's settings as well.

Interesting.
I never had such problems because I do not really use steam.

Did you have this problem specific to steam popups or also from other programs such as chat (skype, msn)?

Damn, I wish my gtx 470 were here already, apparently it's shipping from further away
so it takes a bit longer, but I expect it in 1 or 2 days, latest end of the week.
