The sudden freezes in the screen is frequent enough that I can predict how much time I have to properly switch to tty and reboot the machine before it stops responding altogether. I don't even need to launch video. Sometimes the desktop will stall and crash at the login screen. It took a few restarts before I could even properly write this comment.
