What Mac OS version are you on. Many people reporting issues with Big Sur. Do you have any third party software installed such as anti virus.
Did you quit and relaunch photoshop after turning off GPU, as you absolutely need to do that for the setting to take effect.

You did not answer my question what OS are you on? Important for us to know so someone can help you.
Let's try an SMC reset.

I have the same machine and the same problem. Nothing suggested here works. Nothing! Like you I cannot work the flickering is giving me headachs!. Turning off the GUU causes the application to run slow and jerky. I have been on the phone with adobe and twice and both times the help has been clueless suggesting all kinds of bandaid fixes.
Anyone with a solution please please reply to me directly
