Graphics Glitching Issue

[fate0311]

So I have a maxed out 15" MBP with the AMD 370x. I have posted a link to a video showing the glitching issue I'm having when logging into OSX. I do have bootcamp installed with Windows 10 and was not sure if this is some sort of graphics "switching" glitch when logging back into OSX. You will see dashes flicker across the screen after I type in my password and prompt it to login. It does login after that glitch, although I cut the video short as I had windows up with personal information I did not want in the video. Additionally I also notice on the login screen the user account names have smaller font and are not as crisp in resolution.

The more I think though, I do not recall it doing it until recently which leads me to believe it's not induced by bootcamp.

Ideas anyone?

You have a warranty, use it. That looks like a graphics card problem to me.

Damn, I was hoping it was software/driver

Does it happen every time?

Yes, every time. I have added another link to a video showing a full restart and boot up this time.

I also notice the progress bar goes from this nice clean look to a rectangle shape, you can see it in the video below.

The only other idea I can think of to single out hardware vs driver is to do a clean install of OSX.

Have you reset the SMC and/or PRAM? At least worth a shot.

Just followed those steps to reset SMC and that seemed to have solved it, although the progress bar still completes about 1/4 of the way then goes to a rectangle shape.

I must have missed it. At one time in the video does it do the thing with the progress bar?

Yes after the artifacts flash on the screen. You see the progress bar briefly then the desktop hits.

Not quire sure - hopefully you have an Apple store near you that you can schedule an appointment at your convenience.
