Hi again,
Just read your nVidia settings.
Don't know exactly what spec your PC is, although it sounds like you've got a powerful machine.
If everything is running fine then ignore what I'm about to say...
In my understanding if you are using anisotropic filtering then "force mipmaps" can be set to off / none.
"AA transparency - Supersampling" supposedly exacts a performance hit compared to "multisampling".
Likewise with "texture filtering" - running at "Quality" instead of "High Quality" allows you to use the useful "anisotropic sample optimisation" and "trilinear optimisation" settings which (on my machine at least) result in equally good image quality.
Once again - if your machine can handle it - great, - ignore everything I've said. If you find some issues with large numbers of aircraft / ground objects though, be aware that you can get a useful performance boost without sacrificing the eye candy.
