It's been a month since the last post. Just curious if anyone has upgraded to Mountain Lion and seen the issue go away? The flashing didn't bother me at first, but it's getting worse, and now I see a scrambled video image (like in the OP's video). This made me thing logic board as I just replaced my older white iMac due to graphics issues.

Hi, I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few weeks ago, this has fixed the flickering issue for me.
