[Solved] Some Desktop Environments are flickering.

Hi! I installed ArchLinux like a month ago, and I'm very satisfied with its performance on my old laptop HP Compaq Presario CQ60-205EZ. But I would like to know why some programs and some Desktop Environments are flickering. I installed KDE Plasma, and it was flickering way too much. GNOME is another example. For me, MATE is the one that works without screen flickering when I move the mouse. Even though, some programs are flickering, like GeoGebra and Atom. If there is any fix for this problem, I would like to know what that is.

Specifications:
3GB RAM DDR2
NVIDIA 8200M G
AMD Sempron SI-42

If there is any information you need, please just say it.

Re: [Solved] Some Desktop Environments are flickering.

The problem was that my GPU was overheating, and that was causing the flickering.
