To modify settings for Archeage you will need to find the following location:
C:Users(Your User Name)DocumentsArcheAgesystem.cfg
Keep in mind some of the settings are used for tweaking max graphics and might not apply to the video cards you are using so you might need to play with some of these settings to set them for your specific system. But these will give you an idea about what each of the settings will do for you and what exactly it will effect on the system.
