Hi everybody
On my system MSI B75A-G43 (MS-7758) , when running the latest kernel the screen shake, but only when X is running - Before X is installed or running, the screen is visibly fine.

If xf86-video-intel is installed remove it.
Online
sudo pacman -R xf86-video-intel
and reboot
but the problem is still

In kernel 5 onwards
should be: option i915 modeset
/etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf
option i915 modeset = 1
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Option "AccelMethod" "sna" # FPS lower or normal
#Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" # FPS higher or maybe for game
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
and
The problem was solved.

The Device section doesn't match a driver and will only apply to xf86-video-intel - which you claim to be removed - anyway and i915.modeset is enabled by default and w/o you'd either run on the unaccelerated vesa driver or get no GUI at all.
=> The solution is most likely coincidental and not related to anything in post #4
