Essex innit!
When we get a new game, how do you determine what settings to use? Do you play it as it is without touching the settings or do you fiddle with the settings and see how it is.

Always for me, I have gone straight to the options menu, set maximum everything and worked back from there.

How do you eat set yours?
 
I was thinking of this the other day when I bought Thief.
My thoughts are: you're a PC gamer if you go straight to the option menu, then graphics settings to fiddle with those settings :)

To answer your question, I have a slightly older machine so it's a case of putting up as much as possible but using my past experience to miss off the 'expensive' ones.
I'll then try the game and if it plays ok go back and start upping more things.
 
Depends which pc im using. PC one uses the highest possible settings as it houses 290's in crossfire. PC two uses low-medium settings and FXAA as it only has a HD7770 inside it.
 
Go in a turn all the setting and work back from there.
Although due to my backlog of games most of the games I play are actually quite old by the time I get to them, so max is usually fine.
