We analysed Kepler data of two similar dwarf novae V344 Lyr and V1504 Cyg in order to study optical fast stochastic variability (flickering) by searching for characteristic break frequencies in their power density spectra. Two different stages of activity were analysed separately, i.e. regular outbursts and quiescence. Both systems show similar behaviour during both activity stages. The quiescent power density spectra show a dominant low break frequency which is also present during outburst with a more or less stable value in V344 Lyr while it is slightly higher in V1504 Cyg. The origin of this variability is probably the whole accretion disc. Both outburst power density spectra show additional high frequency components which we interpret as generated by the rebuilt inner disc that was truncated during quiescence. Moreover, V344 Lyr shows the typical linear rms-flux relation which is strongly deformed by a possible negative superhump variability.
