I've been getting these real strange fragmentation problems with Firefox (and only Firefox) after I play a game (any game it would seem, but I've noticed it after League of Legends, Skyrim, Dungeon Defenders, Section 8: Prejudice, and others). The links show how it looks during a normal browsing (and this is like this for all sites, even ones without Flash, but my examples are youtube).

So any idea why this might be happening and ONLY with Firefox? Never with any other browser.

Hi,

Please check if this happens in Safe Mode. Safe mode disables the installed Extensions, and themes (Appearance) in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Use hardware acceleration when available. Options > Advanced. All these settings/add-ons can also be individually and manually disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme or hardware acceleration is causing issues.
