I noticed 2, but wasnt impressed with the graphics - so left it alone, but Gothic 3 is looking really impressive in the graphics department - so im quite looking forward to it now, it'll at least keep me happy until Dark Messiah is released at the end of the month.

You may want to enable vsync to try and solve the "jerky screen" issue - but make sure your refresh rate is above 60 or you'll only be able to get a max of 60fps

You dont happen to have vsync turned on do you? If you run at 60hz and have vsync on, thats where your cap comes from, the game will only ever draw as many frames as your monitor can refresh.
