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.

    the Manjaro hardware driver setting is absolutely confusing or straight up misleading
    also hilariously easy to bork your system here if you ever think about trying the video-vesa driver for whatever reason

    the solution is to use the newest linux kernel and update all your packages (which updates Mesa and Vulkan tools) and afterwards rebooting (I still believe Manjaro doesn’t reload kernel modules on kernel updates automatically?)
    if you experience graphics issues switch between Xorg/X11 and Wayland compositor

    if you actually want worse gaming performance try the proprietary driver
