So for the last year or so i have seen "All" Browsers i download seem to use like 80% Cpu usage when browsing or watching videos.

The only browser that does not use a lot of resources is Internet Explorer Which is the default browser that came preinstalled on my laptop

 

the browsers i have tried are...

 

Google Chrome

Firefox

Opera

Chromium

Torch

 

and i think another one i forget it's name

 

anyone else face this problem?

i currently have my cpu limited to 80% max to prevent over heating :P

Is this the amd e2 cpu you have listed in your bio? If so it's logical as well it's an ancient extremely weak cpu. The reason internet explorer performs better is because a lot of websites have IE specific layouts due to it being a very old browser and not supporting new standards thus you get a very low end version of the site.
