Graphic glitches on Macbook Pro early 2015

I have looked trough all threads about graphic glitches on models like mine, but I have not seen anything quite like what I am experiencing.

Every time I open the mac to login it looks like a disco. And constantly while surfing in Safari and doing regular stuff there are glitches. The only thing working normally is watching video in full screen. Then there are no disturbances.

I have added some pictures of the problem. I feel it started after i started using a SNES emulator on my mac. Is there a way to reset all configuration for the graphics on the mac? Or should I bring the computer into a support place for this.

Text being messed up as I scroll trough it:

Technical :

Graphics: Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB

OSX: El Capitan 10.11.6

Macbook Pro retina 13 inch start of 2015

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

Shut down

Disconnect all external devices

reset the smc

reset the NVRAM

How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

then boot into safe mode

then reboot normally with devices disconnected.

if you are seeing this after you have used the emulator I would expect there may be an issue with the emulator you need to discuss with the developer.

if you are rebooting and still seeing this when you have not used the emulator you may want to bring it to Apple for a diagnostic. Speak with Apple to make an appointment before brining it in for an evaluation.
