Godot version

4.0.3-stable, I've tested it also on 4.0.2 and 4.0.0

System information

Windows 10, NVidia 4070 latest drivers

Issue description

Only by clicking on the window I get a weird flickering on the screen. It happens even before selecting any project, in the launcher, but it is more apparent opening an empty project. It seems to react to just clicking with the mouse on the screen, but in the end it happens by itself.

Steps to reproduce

Just open the launcher and click on it, you will start seeing black frames Open an empty project, click in the editor also will give black frames. Run an empty project, the window will start showing (not responding) in the title as you just click on it

Minimal reproduction project

No need, it already happens in the launcher. It is more apparent with a full empty project running (check video)
