Start with:
lspci -nn
dmesg | grep -i firmware
If there are any firmware loading errors, these would probably
indicate a need to install some non-free firmware packages
(e.g. firmware-amd-graphics).
Installing amd64-microcode probably wouldn't hurt either, though it
probably won't have an immediately noticeable effect on your graphics.
