Try to disable GPU rendering in Vegas (Options - Preferences- Video - GPU Acceleration of video processing) and post back how it helped.

I have no experience with Quick Heal Antivirus but I would recommend AVAST Free as a first aid help: https://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

Yes, lower screen resolution requires less power because there is less pixels and cpu/gpu will have do less work per unit. I am not a gamer but the FPS question is hard to answer because it depends on game (or better say on game engine).

There is no best screen resolution unless you specify the screen size. In that case pixel density (pixels per inch) matters not the resolution :) Remember you may set the text/item size in modern OS such as Windows 10 so the resolution has no effect to the text size. For 15 inches screen size...

Try to disable GPU rendering (Options - Preferences- Video - GPU Acceleration of video processing).

I would suggest to re-install the most recent Realtek drivers and try different output modules in VLC (Tools - Preferences - Sound).

I would suggest you to take a look into Asus Transformer. It is 2in1, works flawlessly and has a great battery life.

I assume the problem appeared with no change to OS or apps. I would recommend then to focus on background processes - i.e. I would perform scan with MSE, Avast etc. Do you have installed any antivirus?
