Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this video corruption? It's a sports game and only seems to happen when I view fullscreen. It (the sports game) utilizes a Youtube stream. Other videos utilize HTML5 player and also have the same corruption. This has been working fine the past month or so. I watched a regular youtube video in fullscreen and it appeared normal. A reboot also did not seem to resolve it. No software or hardware changes occurred. Video seems to be normal in another computer, also. Thanks.

EDIT: sports game = a live sports event, not a video game

Your temperature readings are high; you may have a bad video card.

Can you swap video cards with one of the computers that doesn't have the problem? If the problem then moves to the other computer, and if this computer now shows the video correctly, then you will know that the video card is the problem.

This is an Intel NUC system (NUC6I5SYH), and the GPU is the iGPU.

Also, this problem was occurring in Chrome. Played the stream in a different browser (Firefox) and no issues so far.
