/r/PCGaming has an active thread discussing these improvements and further discoveries.

You'll likely see some of the improvements in the mod DLL added to the official game with the new patch, so make sure you keep an eye on that page for updates.

Game is pretty much unplayable - AMD or not.
Biggest disappointment of the year edition.
They should stick to Witcher, maybe they can get that right.
