Anno 117 performance

Hello people,

I finally found time to start 117 after being swamped with work before. After the first startup I had to move the game to my SSD since load times were killing me and now I'm fiddling with graphics options.

For context I played 1800 at high settings until late game with all regions and had no problems, but performance feels off right now.

Does anyone have some general advice with options can be turned down for good performance gains while the game still looks good? Changing options in game is pretty slow.

Also does the AMD scaling option give good gains and if so how does it actually influence the game?

Thanks for your time :)
