Laggy/Choppy Plasma (Nvidia Drivers)

[kallu]

Hi, I recently Installed Manjaro and I am enjoying it a lot, however when I move windows across the screen or screens they tend to be choppy and lag a bit. What could be the cause? I believe my PC is powerful enough as everything was working when I am using Ubuntu or Windows. I am using Nvidia Drivers: 470.57.02.
