Asus Q534UX Laptop Screen Glitch/Tear

I bought an Asus Q534UX laptop last month. Maybe once per day or less, the screen would glitch/tear -- it was usually around the bottom fifth of the screen and was a quick, blink-and-you'll-miss-it horizontal glitch. I never thought much of it until yesterday
when the screen refused to do anything but flicker black when i tried to wake the laptop up from a quick sleep.

Luckily i was within my return window, so I got the laptop exchanged for a supposedly new one. I've had this new one for less than a day, but now the screen has glitched multiple times, throughout the screen. It's similar in nature -- horizontally across the
screen like a glitch or a rough screen tear, looking like static -- but it lasts longer and will happen multiple times within a 5-s span.

Have other people experienced this glitch? is there a fix, or is it a harbinger of things to come?

Thanks.

 

Screen picture tearing

Recently I started to notice that after some time the picture on the screen starts to tear like in the computer games when you have VSync disabled. The tearing is always right in the middle of the screen, it's horizontal. It is most noticable when you swype
the screen slowly from side to side, or scroll an internet page. Firmware is updated to PR1.2



Switching off and on helps for a day or so and then it emerges again.



Does anyone know what it could be? I can also make a video of this effect when I encounter it again.
