I also had this kind of problem and it's still a lill laggy, but now it's okay.
- Restart your PC
- Kill all services/tasks that are using the GPU (listed by nvidia-smi)
- Get your preffered program in the foreground -> the explorer (desktop, menu etc.) is more laggy than chrome
- lower global / local work till it's not laggy anymore
cheers
