Older intel graphics implementations could not output exactly 23.976Hz (but rather end up with something like 23.971Hz) , and therefore one gets periodic frame skips in order to stay in sync.
This is definitely fixed in haswell integrated graphics, which can output ~exactly 23.976Hz (so eg the i3/i5 haswell NUC's are fine). The Bay Trail/Silvermont in principle uses an older Ivy Bridge based graphics core, but it's possible they've also solved the issue with small updates here. (At least no one has checked yet as far as I am aware.)
I too would like to know if this chipset suffers from this issue as well. I wonder if the clock speed of the cpu being 2.39Ghz (maybe 2.3976Ghz) was deliberate to be a multiple of 23.976fps.
Anyways, any information from the people who have this model would be great!
