18.2.2 Fullscreen glitch/lagg (R9 280X)

I am experiencing frame spikes and stuttering during full screen mode on many of my steam games, sometimes browsers playing youtube videos, and VLC player at fullscreen. I cash on some games after 40-60mins of play. GPU doesnt exceed 75c and cpu doesnt exceed 70c.
My monitor resolution is 16x9 at 60hz. the 18.1.1 driver worked fine. I had no issue running games. I am sure its the driver because even VLC is stuttering badly in fullscreen. Does anyone have a solution without installing the current driver?

Notes: I have the extra setting such as chill, peroformance, and etc off. The only thing I have on is relive's replay, gif, and desktop recording. Display settings and global graphics setting are all untouched.

Specs:

  • CPU: Ryzen 7 2700
  • GPU: R9 280X
    Ram: 16gb DDR4 3000mhz
  • MBO: B450 Tomahawk
  • PSU: CX600 watt
  • Harddrive: SSD crucial 500gb

Bit confusing, 18.2.2, 18.1.1.. "without installing the current driver".

Have you hacked the new settings onto older driver, or just typo error ?
