Seems like I found a solution. You have to play with GSync compatible mode in nvidia control panel (requires DP 1.2 cable) and refresh rates, for example:
1. Turn on/off gsync compatible mode in nvidia cp.
2. in nvidia cp go to change resolution and set refresh rate to 120
* Go to the top of the Monitors Forum * Open "Policy: Dell AMD FreeSync monitors and Nvidia" * After reading, go to the bottom and open, "Policy: AW2518H and AW2518HF" * Back the AW2518HF down to 60Hz and retest
If you demand to use AW2518HF with AMD card only and AW2518H with NVIDIA card only to avoid compatibility issues, then why my problem occurred only few days ago and not few months ago when I purchased the monitor? I want to claim that I wasn't experiencing not a single issue till this day, no flickering screen, no blinking, no ghosting, no artifacts, just nothing. I was even using G-Sync compatibility mode with no issues via DP cable. Doesn't this automatically mean that its a driver issue? I will reinstall bunch of old nvidia drivers, and will reply what happens.

3. turn turn on/off gsync compatible mode
4. from nvidia cp switch back to 240 hz.
5. if doesnt work, do it again several times.
very strange phenomenon to be honest

I have an AMD GPU (GIGABYTE GAMING OC 5700 XT) and I still have the ghosting issue so it is probably not incompatibility between GPUs
