This fixed my issue on Intel UHD Graphics 620:
sudo mkdir /etc/X11/ xorg.conf. d/ nEndSection\ n\nSection "Device" \n\tIdentifier "Intel Graphics"\n\tDriver "intel"\n\tOption "TearFree" "true"\n\tOption "TripleBuffer" "true"\n\tOption "AccelMethod" "sna"\n\tOption "DRI" "3"\nEndSection' | sudo tee /etc/X11/ xorg.conf. d/20-intel. conf
echo -e 'Section "Module"\n\tLoad "dri3"\
Screen tear is gone and no artifacts
