Really bad screen flickering while using pycharm

OS Version: macOS X High Sierra (10.13.6)

Graphics Card: Intel HD Graphics 4400 HD 1536 MB

4 Intel Core i5 Processors, 2.4 GHz (according to the "About This Mac" window)

Memory: 12 GB DDR3 Memory with 1600 MHz.

Please let me know if you need more information about my hackintosh

The issue is that pycharm looks very glitched out when launched, and at the bottom of the screen, it is glitching too. I first tried pycharm 2020, then to pycharm 2019, and now pycharm 2018, and all of them are glitched out. Pycharm 2024 is the latest version but I know that there is no way that it is supported on High Sierra. The python IDLE seems to be working without any glitches. I also tried a supported version of VS Code for High Sierra, the glitching was much less, but hovering over a button in VS Code would cause glitching at the bottom of the screen.

I am also sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place, but since this only seems to occur on my hackintosh, so I think I am supposed to post it in r/hackintosh .

Edit: I tried running High Sierra in a VM using VMware Workstation Pro 17, and pycharm 2020 worked fine without glitches, and there isn't any graphics acceleration too.
