Graphics problem under Monterey (Intel Iris 1536 MB chip)

Hello, I have a graphics problem with Monterey on my Mac mini end of 2014 ( Graphics problem under Monterey (Intel Iris 1536 MB chip). The edges of the Dock and the Control Panel appearing full of artifact, like plastic cut with scissors or torn. My Mac being compatible it's strange and ugly. I should mention that other users with other Macs using this chip have the same problem.

Mac mini, macOS 11.6

I am facing this same issue in my MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) with Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655 1536 MB Graphics. Tried reinstalling Monterey and also tried by downgrading to Big Sur, but no luck.

System firmware is updated as part of Monterey installation and firmware doesn't get downgraded when we downgrade OS to Big Sur or lower versions. I tried downgrading to Mojave as well.

'About this Mac -> System Report' shows firmware version is 19.xxx whatever we do. I think this firmware upgrade is causing the issue.

In my system, System Firmware Version: 1715.60.5.0.0 (iBridge: 19.16.10647.0.0,0)


Whoever is facing the issue, please send feedback to Apple here, https://www.apple.com/feedback/macbook.html

All images and videos are looking so ugly. System can't used to even watch videos now.

Looks like no other option except waiting for Apple's fix.
