    This really varies from person to person. I usually leave antialiasing off as that can take a significant toll on fps. 1680x1050 is a very nice resolution (especially since that's the native resolution on your laptop) and if you're getting 30-50fps, i'd say that should be fine. Maybe you could lower some other details to boost your fps if you have higher expectations.

    the 3 main things that will affect you fps is AA, shadows, and resolution. You can lower the res if you like, or turn off shadows, or turn off AA or all...it just depends how you like your game to look and play.

    There also other options you can turn off or lower via the console commands like dynamic lighting, specular map, soften smoke edges, etc but for these you will have to search the PC forums over at callofduty.com because i dont remember them off hand.

    I suggest playing at 1680X1050 [native??]

    This is quite a high resolution so there will be fewer jagged edges [which AA removes], and therefore less need for AA so you can even turn that off and see how it runs

    Give it a go

    GAME ON!! :D :D :D
