So i kept the story short, a while back i was getting much less frequent but consistent green screen issue, i seemed to have solved that by using an older driver, i couldn't tell you which, but it did solve the issue, the problem with that was that i would get really bad performance in games, i assumed it was the older driver and since a fair amount of time had passed, i attempted to update the driver to the latest, that's what got me in this pickle.
I can confirm i'm getting far better performance with the latest driver, but i can't bare to go through the aforementioned process every morning before starting my computer, ughh
