Don't worry about UT99. Just get the best you can afford.
Match a new UT renderer to your new card and OS.

nVidia + XP upwards : use the new OpenGL renderer.
ATI + XP : use the new D3D9 renderer.
ATI + Vista upwards : use the new D3D10 renderer.
ATI + Win7 upwards : use the new D3D11 renderer.

Use the D3D9 renderer if you wish to use the ENB mod.

All renderers have individual settings, so you must tweak for your own choice of "optimisation", whether that be speed or quality.

Yes those are the main new versions. There are newer ones being tested at the moment, available from Oldunreal
http://www.oldunreal.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1131878615

DX10 and 11 are by Kentie
Unreal engine Direct3D 10 renderer - kentie.net (http://kentie.net/article/d3d10drv/index.htm)
Unreal engine Direct3D 11 renderer - kentie.net (http://kentie.net/article/d3d11drv/index.htm)

Everything you need to know about setting up the UT renderers is here;
UT99.org | TUTORIAL: Unreal Tournament Audio & Visuals Tweaking Guide : Tips, Tricks & Tutorials (http://www.ut99.org/viewtopic.php?t=373)

Everything you need to tweak Windows is here;
Your Unreal - Tweak Windows and ALL Graphics drivers (http://my.opera.com/Unreal-Tournament/blog/tweak-windows)

You can edit the settings in the main UT "ini" file, but the easiest way to access the renderer settings is via the GUI.
Either from UT by opening the console and typing "preferences".
You then see the "advanced options" panel that is available in the editor.
Or if you have installed the "oldskool" mod that allows you to play Unreal, then you can use the handy menu option it adds.

If you don't already have UT running, it can be quicker to open UEd and open the advanced options from there.

Depends also at what resolution you play at and what graphics card? Some UT settings are gpu hog

I tried that Direct3D 11 and it was blah... D3D 9 seems to work flawlessly on this laptop, which does have 11 installed. hmmm.. maybe mine needs updated...

Kentie does point-out that the DX11 version is nothing more than a "proof of concept" test type thing.
The DX10 renderer is the one to use if you have Vista and up.

Mostly nothing uses DX10 functions, but there are a few mods that do.

Currently I am using the new Beta DX9, which works very well and fixes some annoying transparency issues, that were a pain for many mappers.

.

I concur, I too am using the 'beta' D3D 9 driver and have had flawless integration and very little hassle from it when I nudge it to make 'enhancements'
