1.07 - Patch has killed my FPS in Novigrad.
Hey guys,
With 1.06 and before, I played with on average 85fps. Very, very rarely would I ever drop below 60, only when doing something like casting igni against many enemies or the occasional stutter would see my counter drop below 60. There was literally no where in the game that I could look at and not have above 65fps. (playing on high without Hairworks, PC specs are in my sig).
I've been playing with 1.07 since it came out, and up until now didn't notice any fps difference, but Ive just gone back to Novigrad to finish off the quest 'Carnal Sins' and for some reason that particular area of the city drops me down to 45fps. (see picture below for area)

My settings are EXACTLY the same as before the patch dropped. I even ran tests before I manually installed 1.07 so I could see what my FPS was before and after (expecting an increase) in Oxenfurt and it was pretty much the same. The decrease only seems to happen in this area of Novigrad.
I know Im not the only one to report these issues; what on earth have you done to PC performance CDPR?

UPDATE:
Just saved my game in the area that is causing my FPS to drop, and restarting the game.
Loaded in, back up to 60+fps no problem!
Problem solved... I thought. Wrong. As soon as I leave the area and come back to it, FPS back down to 45 fps. If I reload my save game back again, back up to 60+fps.
This is clearly a bug.
