Chrome Taskbar Thumbnail Preview turns into a white screen

Basically if I minimize a chrome window, sometimes the taskbar preview just turns into a white screen. The earliest I can remember it happening was after I reset my PC (keep personal files) on Wednesday March 10, 2021. It happens more often when using a tab which is actively using my microphone or webcam (mostly google meet). I have tested using google meet on different browsers (brave, edge) and they all have the same issue. After clicking on the window to reopen it, it does show the normal window instead of the white screen. I have tried the following solutions:

- Reset my PC (keeping personal files), issue started after doing this
- Deleted GPU Cache and all local appdata for chrome, does not fix it
- Cleared my history, cache, web settings (all of the things in advanced history clearing options), does not fix it
- Reinstalled NVIDIA GPU Drivers multiple times and also using DDU, does not fix it
- Reinstalled AMD Chipset Drivers multiple times, does not fix it

- Change Power Plans in Windows Settings, does not fix it

- Tried a different HDMI cable, does not fix it

- Changed NVIDIA Control Panel settings around, does not fix it

- Tried different browsers, same issue
- Changed the "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed" setting, does not fix it
- Set Hardware Acceleration to off fixes it but this also causes screen tearing when doing anything on that browser so I don't want to use this solution

- Tried using a different account on my PC, same issue

Is there any way to fix this or will I need to do an RMA on any of my parts?
