List your hardware, have you tried older GFX drivers? What is your power saving settings? Do you have an SSD?

Its a dual core celeron (now i dont remember exactly), 3gb ram, ati hd5400, normal hd not SSD.

Screensaver starts at 20 mins of inactivity and sleep mode is off.

Maybe try an older gfx drivers helps, latest ati catalist seem a bit heavy.

Yepp first I would try an older driver for the GFX card, after that check bios settings followed by checking advanced power saving options.
