This seems to be a Windows-specific issue. Will need a Windows developer to confirm.

@StevenP, can you still reproduce this in the newest version?

I just retested it with blender-2.80.0-git.936014ea8c74-windows64

The problem is quite a bit better compared to the original version I had, but there is still something not right with the user interface when in full screen mode on my PC. Now for much of the time the GUI responds quickly, but then sometimes it just stops for a second or so. So it's now 90% of the time good, 10% of the time bad. With the previous version it was 90% bad, 10% good.
In windowed mode, the GUI is 100% good with both Blender versions.
Hope this helps you. Cheers, Steven.

Is this still an issue with the latest AMD drivers and the latest blender beta?

Closing due to no response in a long time. Also cannot reproduce on Windows but I have an nvidia card.

If you still have the issue, feel free to re-open this.
