    Hi All:

    Few days ago I got my hands on Gothic 3 and since then have not been able to put it down (it's so very interesting!) However, I have been experiencing lag while walking into other zones when playing on my Dell NB (specs below). The lag is more noticible in towns with a large creature population.

    What specific in-game settings could I tweak to reduce lag while still maintaining the graphical eyecandy when playing at 1900x1200, short of installing more RAM?

    As well, what do I do to reduce saving/loading times -- upgrade to 7200 rpm hd, defragement hd more often?
