Subtle But Horribly Annoying Screen Tearing Issue

Hey all,
Having a weird issue with screen tearing on my GTX 670. I notice it when watching videos in XBMC, VLC, MPC-HC, and YouTube--so, basically all video content. Also, it gets really bad in Steam Big Picture mode when navigating menus. This is happening both on my monitor (DVI) and my LCD TV (HDMI). As far as I can tell, it's not happening in games--at least not too badly.
It only affects a few horizontal lines on the screen, only when things are moving pretty quickly, and it looks to be pretty much in the same place every time--about 1/3 of the way down from the top of the video. It's much more apparent when I'm watching in full screen. Running the tearing test in MPC-HC, you can tell it's pretty bad.
I of course have VSYNC enabled in the video players and in games, and have toggled the various other options suggested in forums. Help, please!

I'm not sure how it would be a codec if the stream big picture is messing up. Doesn't that run with Direct X? Perhaps its a driver issue?
I had a similar problem when my 9800 GTX+ was dying.
