Graphical glitches OSX Intel HD 3000? OpenGL?

['Arith]

Im not sure if this is hardware or general support but since it's mainly graphical I decided hardware.

I found that for some reason I happen to experience graphical glitching when running games on the latest 4.0 stable build and higher.

But when I use 3.5 stable and some 3.5 dev versions it works without a hitch.

This happens with any game. I'm assuming it's an Intel HD 3000 and OpenGL thing but I'm looking for a concise answer as to why it happens on anything higher than 4.0/3.5 stable.

Mac osx 10.8.5
i7
4GB DDR3 RAM
Intel HD 3000

I use default settings. Nothing touched and perfectly clean.

as an example,

this is Super Mario Galaxy 2 on:

3.5-stable





3.5-663





4.0-stable (glitch)



4.0-241







Oh and another thing I'm wondering is since my cpu is i7 but my igp is intel hd3000 does that mean that in terms of speed I can't do much thanks to the GPU? and also if I were to bootcamp windows 7 would it have a more positive/negative effect considering the OpenGL and d3dx backends in relation to my GPU?


Thanks.
