Hey, I'm sort of curious what everyone has their 8800GTS (or any 8000 series card for that matter) at?
I set everything to max possible, and after about 2 weeks, realized that it wasn't the best idea.
Turned off my AA 16xQ... (haha), got a huge increase on FPS, and didnt notice any visual difference.

Could someone give me some sort of direction as of what I should use for the settings?
Maybe default even?
 
Use 16XAA, 8XAA or 16xQAA. Those are all of nVidias CSAA settings, they offer top quality for the best performance. To be short, CSAA mode is like running in the "Q" mode (forget how to spell the damn word) except it saves z-color/bandwidth footprints and is less stressful in general on shader work. I run most of my games at 8xAA/16AF or 16xAA/16AF, it also depends on what resolution your running as well. For real/future DX10 titles, AA will be basically "free" most likely. If Crytek sticks to it's word, an 880GTX with a comparable CPU and 2GB of RAM will be able to max out the game, DX10 and 9. An 8800GTS would therefore do the same, but at the lower resolutions most likely.
