The framerate and other graphic problems of The Witcher 3 have me a little worried. Not that I think they won't fix it, but because I'm affraid that they have used a beast of a PC to show it, and if even that beast can't cope with it ...

But CD Projekt Red still has more than six months to polish it.

Also, Project Cars looks fabulous. I'm keeping an eye on it (even if I may end not getting it on PC). But I wonder how it plays. Anyone has a link to a hand-on impression of the game?

Games usually aren't really optimised until the last few months of development. And even if it was super optimised it's still going to need a beast of a machine to play it at max settings regardless. The level of detail, physics, animation and scale of the game is kinda insane for an open world RPG. A bit of stutter going into a city with hundreds of NPCs that all have individual routines (unlike say the Assassin's creed crowds) and react to the player, with no loading screen in an unoptimised build doesn't sound like a terribly bad sign for a game 8 months from release. Aparently Arkham Knight has performance issues (aparently better at E3 than the build they showed a couple months ago, but still noticible) and that game has a more limited scope while also running on monster PCs.

I know, I know.

It's just that I don't want another "fiasco" like what happened with Mass Effect (for very different reasons!). I don't want them to screw it up now after the excellent first games just because they have bitten more than they can chew.
