Disabling startupnotify didn't do anything, thanks anyways for the suggestion/help.
@jmccue I already have double_buffer in the config. I also removed it, didn't have any effect.
conky.config = {
override_utf8_locale = false,
background = true,
use_xft = true,
font = 'noto sans:size=11.5',
xftalpha = 0.8,
out_to_console = false,
out_to_stderr = false,
update_interval = 3.0,
total_run_times = 0,
draw_shades = false,
own_window = true,
own_window_class = 'Conky',
own_window_type = 'normal',
own_window_transparent = true,
own_window_hints = 'undecorated,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,below',
own_window_argb_visual = true,
minimum_width = 2560,
maximum_width = 2560,
double_buffer = true,
default_color = 'cc44ff',
color1 = 'e0cdc3',
alignment = 'top_middle',
gap_y = 5,
no_buffers = true
}
conky.text = [[

When I look at the Arch Linux Wiki;
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/conky
It mentions; For the other Desktop environments/WM: Try editing conky.conf and adding/changing the following line:
own_window_type = 'override',
or
own_window_type = 'desktop',
So maybe 'override' is just fine in Openbox? I just assumed to use normal or desktop is all. hmm...
THANKS
