1. Is 50% GPU load going to slow down web browsing? If so, how about 30%? I know this can depend case to case but what is average estimate?
2. 1GH/s, pool mining? How long would it take you average to get 50BTC at current difficulty?
3. How much mhashs HD7670m gets?
4. What pool best suits someone with 1GH/s?
5. 4th question for 5GH/s

Thanks

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

2. 1GH/s, pool mining? How long would it take you average to get 50BTC at current difficulty?

Over 24-26 months, not adjusting for increases in difficulty of course.

Also, google these terms.

2. 1GH/s, pool mining? How long would it take you average to get 50BTC at current difficulty? current difficulty is IRRELEVENT difficulty will jump by 10X to 100X the price of bitcoin is also important
3. How much mhashs HD7670m gets?not much since it's the mobile version I'd guess 15Mhs
4. What pool best suits someone with 1GH/s? anypool I use BITMENTER since it's ASIC ready.
5. 4th question for 5GH/s see 4

Thanks

Woah these are some REALLY newbie questions
1. Ensure that when looking at flash videos (like youtube, or even popups) that you have "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering" ticked in your web browser otherwise your mining hash rate is going to suffer and you are also going to lag
2.Uhhh A VERY LONG, UNDERTERMINABLE amount of time
3.NEVER mine with Mobile GPU's, They will break MUCH faster and mine WAAAAY slower, This is due to lack of airflow from the standard enclosure, aswell as less stream proccessor units to reduce heat and power consumption (You want as many stream proccessor units as you can get)
4.I would say Slush' pool, or 50btc.
5.It really wont make a differance unless your hashrate is Really low, or Really high.
