Choppy Graphics Randomly? Mav. MBP 2013

Ok so I have been on Mavericks for several weeks and and about a week ago the graphics became "choppy" and when moving windows around there apeared to be tearing happening..

When scrolling over the dock the icons jump back and forth abit or when swiping l to r to switch desktops it takes 2 to 3 times longer than normal to switch and there are pauses or when scrolling on webpages it appears choppy.

I have a video of it but it is hard to see the scrolling part...

ATM yes i am running a vm BUT I was not in the video and this will happen the same thing after a fresh restart without re-opening apps. I forgot to mention I also tried resetting the smc and the nvram but neither worked


On a side note last month my trackpad stop working then it started taking 20 to 30 minutes to boot and then running at 7-800% CPU usage so we took an Apple store they shipped it off, they couldn't even complete diagnostics on it so they replaced everything except for the screen, case, and keyboard but everything was functioning normally for about two weeks...

I just quit the vm, back to normal and it is currently behaving as described... Sorry I dont know if this forum has code boxes or not so I will just post regularly..
