Decided to finally try out version 3.1 after using 2.2 and 2.4 for so long but there's some weird issue with the menu. This was tested with both the standard Doom 1 and Doom 2 Wads with no mods loaded, opened simply by clicking on the application. It's weird but this slowdown issue only seems to be affecting the menu. moving to my menu selections make the audio progressively stutter as well as moving to each selection be very laggy. The actual gameplay and background music as well as gameplay audio, however, are unaffected. I never had this issue with previous versions of GZDoom. Even testing older versions now, they run just fine with no problems in menu selection.
Other games I play are showing no unusual behavior.
GPU is an NVidia GTX 970 manufactured by MSI, not overclocked (I'm only behind on 1 driver update due to the most recent one causing me some grief).
CPU is an AMD FX 8150
I have 16 GB of RAM
OS is Windows 10 64 bit (With Creators Update, and yes game mode is off).
My drivers are updated besides the GPU.
