The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

I decided to start a fresh game as it's been years since I last played and I've forgotten how to play! All going well but the save game location is annoying me! Instead of saving in the Witcher 3 folder in my documents it keeps creating a folder on another drive. I can still play and save/load games but I just like everything to be in its place. I can't seem to find any setting to change in steam so has anyone else come across this and know how to change it?
 
Could someone let me know what would be the basic mods required to get the remaster looking good and bug free for this setup?

5800x3d
9070XT
AW3423DW
32GB RAM

Thanks :)

See my post just 2 up from yours - but with your card use Ray tracing not path tracing and you should still get good results with a spot of frame gen. All 3 together (RenoDX HDR mod + Tweakable Darker Nights mod + Better Candles mod) are essential for me now.

Reno is this one, yea? - https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/10900?tab=files
Better candles is this one? - https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/12718

I can't find the Tweakable Darker nights, could you link that one, please?

Just updated this earlier as I thought I’d try the remaster but now the game won’t load at all, tried multiple drivers verify files and reinstall doesn’t seem to fix it.

I had to delete mine and reinstall to get the game working properly.

Here it is working at 6k with Medium settings on my RX9070XT. THe screenshot below shows 58 fps but It looks awesome, BTW The GPU is only running at 83% and the CPU 35%, so I could probably up the detail a bit, but I'm only at the start, so some GPU performance in reserve is probably a good thing.

(Just within the 5 MB limit!)

I note with amusement that the game itself is using 42 GB RAM. Is anyone else getting such high RAM usage?

Almost looks like Geralt lost his head in that screeny... :p
