Here are config files for people that like to tinker with the settings and some that want to lower their graphics requirement.
Just place the file in your star citizen directory
(Root:/Program Files/Roberts Space Industries/LIVE)
-ingame graphics settings set to low is recommended for minimal input lag
Custom HIGH Settings: By Eiyron ( WARNING ! ! ! High hardware requirements )
http://www.mediafire.com/download/hhkgja1nfbu2htm/user.cfg
-Use ingame graphics low, medium, high, very high settings to enhance graphics quality
-Updated 8/24/2016
Default Settings: By Eiyron (Updated Patch 2.4)

Low Settings: By Eiyron (Updated Patch 2.4)
http://www.mediafire.com/download/62j3t9yuuidnr3o/user.cfg
Ultra Low: By Lex (For Older CPUs) (was good in SC patch 1.3)(Outdated)
https://lex.io/pub/starcitizen/ultralow_user.cfg
(Rename to user.cfg if it does not work)
----FOR CROSSFIRE/SLI USERS----
MAKE SURE YOUR PLAYING ON FULL SCREEN
Change r_multiGPU = 2 to r_multiGPU = 1
0 = Disabled
1 = FORCED
2 = AUTO
----AMD CROSSFIRE USERS----
Catalyst Control Center (CCC)
Manually Set SC to have a profile in you application settings
Make sure to use OPTIMIZE 1X1 Crossfire Mode
Turn ON FRAME PACING
---Game CPU Requirement---
These are just my rough estimates if there is no GPU bottleneck
Place of Reference ---- Defford Link - New Horizon Speedway.
(Why?? Because it has the most assets and its the most punishing map available.) - 2/6/2015

CTRL + F to toggle the find function then input your CPU Model number or Partial model number.
ex:
Model Number ------------------------Full Name
4790K-----------------------(Intel Core i7-4790k)
1100T--------------------------(AMD Phenom II X6)
9590--------------------------(AMD FX-9590)
Low Settings @50-60fps -Intel
-Quadcore CPU
-CPU Multi thread benchmark 8000+
-CPU Single thread benchmark 2000+
Low Settings @50-60fps - AMD
-Octocore CPU
-CPU Multi thread benchmark 8000+
-CPU Single thread benchmark 1500+
-Possibly lower after the implementation of Mantle API
----My Test Rig (My point of reference)----

Motherboard: MSI Z87-MGaming
Ram: 16GB DDR3 1333 7-7-7-21
GPU: ASUS HD 7870 2GB x2 (Crossfire)
PSU: 800 Watt
SDD: (5) 120Gb Kinston HyperX 530 Mb Read/Write (5 Drives on Raid 0 Config)
CPUs: Intel Core i3-4130 & Intel Core i7-4790K @ Stock Clocks
---Test Rig Framerates---
(Low Settings CFG - Frame Pacing Disabled - Frame Limit Disabled)
(New Horizon Speedway - Defford Link)
(2/6/2015)
on Spec: i3-4130
30-40 FPS
-- Enabling/Disabling Crossfire does not change the FPS
-- GPU only at 50% Utilization (single mode)
-- CPU Bottleneck
43-61Fps
--After Closing Background applications and Windows Task Scheduler Modifications
--Crossfire Does not affect output.
-- GPU Only at 80% Utilization (single mode)
on Spec: i7 4790K
51- 68Fps
(Single GPU)
-- GPU at 90 ~ 98% Utilization
65- 85Fps
(Dual GPU)
--GPU at 89 ~ 98% Utilization
