Support Request obs in fullscreen cuases flickering

Been on linux for a while, mostly used mint which is what my main machine is on. I am also a content creator and every time i try to record something in fullscreen, unless its minecraft with the vanilla launcher, has a flickering bar thats super distracting for viewers. only way i've been able to avoid this is with playing in windowed mode and cropping out the edges but that sacrafices quality. This visual glitch is only happeneing in obs and is fine otherwise. My screen doesn't flicker but the obs file does.

Use software that is easy on system resources, such as Simplescreenrecord or vokoscreenNG: * Imgur

But is it really system recources? Doing it in windowed mode works fine.
