    Just wondering how much tweaking is being done in Ati's CCC for best performance.

    I have been going the simple route and leaving most things default.

    Here's my settings.

    CCC Version= 2009.0113.2222.40119
    Drivers= E-wrecked's Bored Mod v2 8.573.0.0


    Standard settings: High Quality
    Anti-Aliasing= 2X
    Anisotropic settings= 8X
    Catalyst AI.= Standard
    Mipmap detail level= High Quality
    Wait for vertical refresh= Off, unless application species
    Adaptive anti-aliasing= Disabled
    Direct 3D settings= Enable geometry instancing (check)
    Open GL= Triple buffering (check)


    What are you guys doing?

    P.S.

    I'm not looking for the best settings when benchmarking; just for games and stuff.
