Performance Notes
The game runs well at 60Hz (without untimate draw distance enabled that is), but in my case with the SD OLED I wanted to see how far i could push it...
Beyond 60Hz, the CPU becomes more of a bottleneck than the GPU.
Disabling SMT using 4 threads only recomended, the game doesn't need 8 cores and prefers the higher clocks this brings. I used Decky Loader with Power Tools with a game specific profile to achive this.
