Buggy KDE plasma with Nvidia GT710 on KDE plasma x11 [SOLVED]

Recently a friend gave me a GT710, and i've installed it on my PC, initialy i was using noveau, but my KDE was too much buggy to use, so i installed the Nvidia proprietary drivers, but the interface still buggy; the image on  the screen seems blury and when i switch windows using alt-tab the desktop and the taskbar is seen as a window, taskbar is aways empty (without any icon).

I've tried to search a lot, but i didn't find any info about this problem, i think it's because of the Nvidia GPU, because i never had this problem before with the igpu

Idk if i shoud write "[SOLVED]" in the title, it's not exacly solved, but i've backuped everything, reinstalled my arch without the arch install and it worked, without any bug, it seams to be some arch install error.

If the problem is gone, mark the thread as solved. It's not like anybody will diagnose a none existing problem from here on

A proper reinstall is kind of a solution, too.
