WTF Settings

Almost a year ago, I came across a post for WTF settings for a machine that was a tad on the slow side.
I saved the settings in Notepad.
Since then I have another machine that is more robust.
However, I have a few people in my guild that run into heavy lag in some zones, especially the main towns.
Below is the saved text. Would this still be valid, or would some of it be redundant, or would some have to be added?

SET hwDetect "0"
SET gxColorBits "24"
SET gxDepthBits "24"
SET gxResolution "1024x768"
SET gxMultisampleQuality "0.000000"
SET fullAlpha "1"
SET lodDist "100.000000"
SET SmallCull "0.070000"
SET DistCull "500.000000"
SET farclip "177"
SET pixelShaders "1"
SET particleDensity "1.000000"
SET unitDrawDist "300.000000"
SET movie "0"
SET movieSubtitle "1"
SET mouseSpeed "1"
SET Gamma "1.000000"
SET MusicVolume "0.5"
SET SoundVolume "0.80000001192093"
SET MasterVolume "0.90000003576279"
SET cameraPitchMoveSpeed "90"
SET cameraYawMoveSpeed "180"
SET cameraPitchSmoothSpeed "45"
SET cameraYawSmoothSpeed "180"
SET cameraDistanceLast "8.188390"
SET cameraPitchLast "26.300028"
SET cameraWaterCollision "0"
SET cameraDistanceMaxFactor "2"
SET AmbienceVolume "0.60000002384186"
SET minimapInsideZoom "0"
SET autoClearAFK "0"
SET minimapZoom "0"
SET alphaLevel "0"
SET guildMemberNotify "1"
SET gxRefresh "60"
SET SoundZoneMusicNoDelay "1"
SET cameraView "4"
SET specular "1"
SET UnitNamePlayer "0"
SET EnableErrorSpeech "0"
SET readScanning "-1"
SET scriptMemory "131072"
SET weatherDensity "0"
SET DesktopGamma "1"
SET ffxDeath "0"
SET lod "0"
SET realmList "us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com"
SET EnableMusic "0"
SET checkAddonVersion "0"
SET CombatDamage "0"
SET lastCharacterIndex "6"
SET gxFixLag "0"
SET baseMip "1"
SET M2Faster "0"
SET gxVSync "0"
SET ffxGlow "0"

Thanks!

I wouldn't suggest a whole file for such a thing as most of those settings don't affect performance. Instead, I'd suggest a list of settings that *do* affect performance. I can look at my settings and see what those would be.

Examples of items that I wouldn't include would be:

SET movieSubtitle "1"

This just turns on movie subtitles. This actually would probably degrade performance, not improve it.

SET minimapZoom "0"

This sets the minimap zoom level. This is very much a personal preference and I've never heard of it affecting performance. Although, I could be wrong.
