I received my build to order Lenovo Ideapad 5 pro gen 8 14APH8 with AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS / 780M. I picked the version without OS as I already had a Windows license. However after installing Windows and all updates, I see a lot of GPU artifacts, especially in the AMD adrenalin tool on the performance tab. Random small green squares that are flashing over the screen ever couple of seconds. Lenovo vantage says there is no updates available. Installing the 7840hs drivers directly from AMD didn’t solve the issue. Anyone else experiencing the same artifacts with their 7840hs laptop or do I have a DOA?

Update: it looked like the problem was gone, but it still persists. Only on battery power though. As soon as I connect the AC adapter there are no more artifacts.

Update2: problem still persists with official driver from lenovo website (instead of newer windows update version)
