Newbie with some questions

He's using an ATI solution whereas you're on an Nvidia cfg, JRock.

Try using this OpenGL section - I run it with 4*AA 16*AS I think, good FPS on 4870 512mb with 8400@3.8, win7 64bit 4gb ram. Someone like Flanker 35M might have further tweaks.

edit:: Oh btw JRock, I noticed you have hardware shaders off in your OpenGL section - try it set to 1.
