Performance boost?

Draw distance does seem increased, but I don't have any hard data to back that up. Performance however is improved. I am now getting 60fps consistently outside of the cities, and getting 10fps higher in city than I was before. This is on a i5 w/ GTX460 setup. I still peak on my GPU temp at the same as before, but in average I'm running 5-7 degrees cooler than pre-patch.

I've had the opposite effect, with FPS being a bit lower, and some pretty heavy screen tearing. I didn't see any changes in the settings, still trying to find the cause.
