I just built a new PC (see below) and am trying some older games that ran but not well on my older rig. I got to Gothic 3 and its performance is terrible, just a few FPS. This ran OK albeit with some settings scaled back on my older machine so I don't understand what is happening. Some newer games and a few older ones I tried run fine on the new machine so it isn't something fundamentally wrong.
Does anyone know of a consolidated list somewhere of Things To Do To Get Gothic 3 running ok? I searched and found a bazillion tips all over the place many of which are contradictory.
Thanks for any tips!
