It's highly specific to your setup and the game/software. Most games aren't a problem. Just the occasional random issue, like in WoW certain locations insta-crash my graphics driver.
That's so odd. Yea, I do agree it's the setup. Lots of people mix ram sticks, weird drivers, etc.
My setup is pretty clean hardware wise (Zen 3, matched RAM, stable/no overclocking, 6800xt), mainline mesa drivers, only thing that's really unstable is wlroots-git / sway-git. Which is sometimes the problem, and other times it's mesa. I also have 3x 1440p monitors, 240/120/120Hz, so if there's any throughput-related bug I'll probably run into it. Being on Arch I'll probably also run into bugs related to updates in dynamically linked libraries fairly early, sometimes before they're fixed.
I also run arch and xfce4, having more than 1 monitor fucks with my refresh rates. Also, your setup sounds pretty nice
