Garuda KDE Ryzen 3500 issues?

I have a suggestion that you may try to implement.
There is a project for multiboot ISOs (before Ventoy ever was). It includes a script (or instructions if you prefer) to create a hybrid multiboot USB drive and a set of ready-made grub config files to auto discover ISO files and create grub menu to boot them.
There is no Garuda config, but I have created and used one for my needs. Maybe you can confirm it works, so we can start suggesting it.
Original project and Webpage
Forked project (original stopped adding/fixing issues)

Save this in the relevant USB (or project) path, at (check relevant) /boot/grub/mbusb.d/garuda.d/generic.cfg

for isofile in $isopath/garuda-*.iso; do
  if [ -e "$isofile" ]; then
    regexp --set=isoname "$isopath/(.*)" "$isofile"
    submenu "$isoname ->" "$isofile" {
      iso_path="$2"
      loopback loop "$iso_path"
      probe --label --set=cd_label (loop)
      menuentry "Start Garuda Linux" {
        bootoptions="img_dev=$imgdevpath img_loop=$iso_path earlymodules=loop misobasedir=garuda misolabel=$cd_label nouveau.modeset=1 i915.modeset=1 radeon.modeset=1 logo.nologo overlay=free quiet  showopts"

    }
  fi
done

This config for Garuda provides different choices, depending on video hardware, which may or not do much difference. I was experimenting, but it would be nice if you test them with your hardware and provide feedback.
