I've been at this for a few days now trying to figure it out, but i can't seem to make it go away completely. And it seems this has been a bit of a problem for quite some time now.

Gaming performance on steam in f.ex Tomb Raider benchmark gives me on ultimate settings at 1080p an average of 55fps, min ~40fps, max 60-70fps so that's good atleast. It's just the day to day use while watching a youtube video and doing stuff, that minor stutter/lag starts get to you when it wasn't there on Windows 10.

If you need any other info, let me know and i'll try and get that info for you guys. Hope i can get this sorted so i can start becoming a full time linux user in my day to day life .
Cheers all!
P.s. Really have tried to but effort into switching from windows to linux, spent half a week setting up arch first in virtualbox and after messing up that installation and not being able to fix it, switched to mint and spent rest of the week messing about and got everything working. But ofc being virtualbox, had no idea about the videocard or other performance stuff. Couldn't even get 18.3 live usb stick to boot on this computer so had to use the 19 beta.
