It looks like my issue is a combination of i915 and intel_pstates.
I'm following the thread at this bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88012
After switching my DELL Inspiron 3646 to the 3.16 kernel, I've had little to no trouble(even stressing the system using: glmark2 --run-forever).
I got my 3.16 kernel here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16.7-ckt18-utopic/
Hope this helps !!
