Brand new laptop- tiny flickering black squares on screen

Hi all

 

I just bought a Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 laptop, and straight away i notice all these flickering squares on screen. They are worse when opening apps or wiggling the mouse etc. The problem disappears when I unplug the power cable.

I tried updating drivers as well as using the AMD website to download them, as well as the standard windows ones. It has AMD Ryzen 7000 series

I went into Bios and there is no flickering in there, so I assume it must be software / driver issue?

Any ideas or do I need to return this laptop (which is a pain as its from another town and I need it for work, and all the time setting it up etc.

 

I have also found if I disable the AMD driver in Device settings completely, then I dont have the issue. As soon as I try to install an AMD driver the issue comes back
