Is it just in browser? Flash or any video? Tried Youtebe in HTML5/WebM? Wonky hardware acceleration settings? Faulty GPU hardware? Insufficient power from the PSU? Could be any of those, can you test a video in a stand alone player like VLC or Mplayer? Can you test with full acceleration on and off?
