It all depends on what you are trying to run.
There is no global setting.

Name a few specific applications and it could help get better answers.

Trust me I m not just answering this because I can.
You systems is similar to mine and there just isnt a clear answer.

Well that complicates things a little.
Crysis is a case by itself.
Here is a good start with things that can be done for it.
The biggest factor that I found it to turn the shadows down to medium in that game for the biggest improvement.
Here is several links that will help.
