    There is what looks to be streaks that go from the bottom of the application window to the bottom of the screen on white or close to white windows. It follows the window to wherever it I drag it and is VERY annoying. Never seen anything like this and google searches arent coming up with any hits. Its very hard to see in the video I posted above, but in person its extremely noticeable and annoying as hell!

    Anyone have any ideas on whether this is a screen or GPU issue? What Ive done:

    Replaced drivers both clean and quick installs.

    Thanks!

    Looks to be the screen as I tested an external and it worked flawlessly.

    Was it already acting like this when you first got it? Is this the stock OS?
    Also, have you tried BIOS and EC update?

    I noticed it right after unboxing. Going to call about it soon, just sad as Im really having such a good time on this laptop despite it.
