Possibility to improve game performance by display settings?

ahh not really too sure what your talking about there. Apart from your desktop loading ever so slighlty faster and using 1mb less memory but makes sure your windows settings are set to have hardware acceleration to the full. The main thing for the graphics card control panel is anti aliasing and anistropic filtering. It basicly makes the squares look less obvious (particuly for diaganol lines) however eats up quite a bit more power. Its good if you have the settings up to the max and you want to add some immersion (i wouldnt call it eye candy)
For those who dont know what im talking about heres a good example.
. Btw trust me looks good once you actually play as the pixels are smaller. Heres a smaller version that looks better.

Another example
and the aliased version.
