The tearing continues after reaching the lock screen and logging in. The tearing is nearly constant, stopping only for certain actions like using the mouse or typing.

However, this is a false fix as it turns off important power management functions and, as a consequence, the fan runs constantly and on high. NOTE: if booted using the i915.enable_rc6=0 boot parameter and allowed to run for a few hours, the computer becomes unstable and applications begin to freeze.
