Yes, I've experienced that before and just tested it again.

I assumed it is related to any voltage because higher sclk helps too. I'll just
call sclk/mclk dpm states "sdpm" and "mdpm"
auto (sdpm 0, mdpm 0 or switching through states): very bad flickering and
artifacts
sdpm 1-7, mdpm 0: better (still flickering/artifacts, but only when bigger
areas on the screen are updated)
sdpm any, mdpm 1: no flickering and artifacts</pre>
