Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with a blank Cesium.Viewer('cesiumContainer') on the reported Windows 10, Chrome 50, and AMD Catalyst 16.4.2 setup, using the linked forum report and screenshot as references. Trace the rendering path responsible for tiles near the poles and verify that the artifacts no longer appear in the affected configuration.
