    I just bought a Yoga 2 Pro with i7 4500 and 8gb RAM. I expect it to breeze through basic applications with ease but I am already running into issues after a day of use.

    I'm watching movies on Amazon Instant Video and seeing some weird playback performance. The video plays fine for a few minutes, but then it gets really choppy and stilted when I continue watching in fullscreen mode. The choppiness continues for a few moments to a few minutes. Shrinking the window back to its normal size rectifies the issue.

    Buffering is probably not the issue as there is significant data loaded in the progress bar.

    I tried watching the video on older laptop and it worked just fine (Dell Latitude intel Core 2 Duo Windows Vista).

    Is this an issue with the Video Card? A performance problem?

    GPU set to performance? Correct version of Flash installed?
