Graphical glitches when upgraded to Gnome 3.22 with Nvidia drivers

I have been using Gnome since 2006, Arch since 2008 always with Nvidia graphics and have never seen anything like this. Upgraded to Gnome 3.22 this morning and rebooted. When relogging in I see something that makes Gnome nearly unusable, graphical glitches galor. Things flash back from where they were, the past and present blur. I tried to screen capture what has happening though some was caught the videos don't accurately show what is happening, when I try the native Gnome screen recorder all the glitches go away until it crashes from a glitch.

Is anyone else seeing this? or have a solution?

System details:
kernel: 4.7.6-1-ARCH
nvidia drivers: 3.70.28
gnome 3.22.0

Remove ‘CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-clipped-redraws:disable-culling´ from ‘/etc/environment´.

Just to report it was a FIX even for my glitching problem, on an up-to-date archlinux with gnome 3 and intel graphic card.
Thanks @Dowefu
