Hello!

I have a 3 week old mid-2014 15" retina MacBook Pro (integrated graphics only) that experiences constant freezes and crashes that first start when browsing the web (such as when watching a YouTube video) and soon propagates to all the other system apps. Eventually, given enough crashes, the system fails to boot.

Only a full format, followed by a PRAM reset, allows me to reinstall OS X and get back to work.

Additional info: MBP initially shipped with Yosemite. I formatted the SSD and installed Mavericks--too many bugs in Yosemite.

Also, problem seems to only occur when an external display is plugged-in (in my case a Dell U2713HM).

AHT shows all hardware to be 'normal.' DriveDx does not show anything alarming with the SSD (minus the fact that I'm wracking up forced shutdown errors from all the hard resets).

EtreCheck log attached. Can't seem to find any kernel panics in console, but maybe someone can help me dig deeper.

Thank you so much for the help! I really appreciate it!

Here's a copy of the console log. Maybe it will help someone pinpoint the issue...

Thank, once more, for your help!

Are there any files in the console app with ".crash" as the extension?
