I’ve installed Manjaro with KDE Plasma, most recent bundle(1week ago) from the Manjaro website. Been playing Path of Exile which runs great, but I’ve installed The Division 2, and there a flickering that make my eyes want off themselves. I’m running the open-source video-Linux 2018.05.04. Would it be better to switch to AMD proprietary. I’m using a 144Hz 1440p freesync monitor paired with a 2560x2880p 60Hz secondary powered by a 7900xt.

    If you enter vulkaninfo into a teriminal, which driver does it use? You want RADV; 23.something or later. If it says AMDVLK, you want to uninstall that.

    Which kernel are you using? You probably want the latest kernel (6.5) right now.

        That looks absolutely fine.
