It sounds like a problem with PSR (panel self refresh). To test that
theory try disabling PSR by adding a kernel parameter:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.enable_psr=0"
in /etc/default/grub and then run:
sudo update-grub
and reboot.
If the problem isn't solved then check the parameter has been applied in
/proc/cmdline
