dunno, i am currently using a autoexec.cfg I got off some site. It looks great, but with the 8600gt I get maybe 18fps outdoors/25fps inside. I don't really see a lot of lag with this config excepting with a lot of environmental damage going on or if i'm popping in and out of sights (like going to sniper scope). I'm playing in DX9 mode.
if an 8800gs or 9600gt can get me up to a consistent 30+fps I'll be happy.
settings in the autoexec are as follows:
