Update on my new build:
I was getting a ton of BSOD crashes when watching videos, and also weird mouse stuttering and lag. I updated my BIOS (which honestly I should have done first) and that did not seem to help. A bit of searching around on the AMD subreddit and I found some people say with the Radeon 5700XT it helps to disable HDCP support for your monitors. (HDCP is an anti-piracy thing for blu-ray, streaming services, etc. )

Override
Seems to have mostly solved the problem. Though I am still getting some occasional lag. But no more crashes yet. I am assuming things will get better after more driver updates.
I tried doing that to see if it would help fix my Blu-ray player issue. Core 4 on my CPU jumped from 45c idle to 95c idle. HAHAHAH! So, I re-enabled it. (I don't have a 5700xt, but been having a few issues with playback on the player)
