Among graphics options in my graphic card control panel I have two called hue and saturation.
The first one has a range from -30 to +30 and the second has a range from -200 to +200.
I found that the best choice (for me ... only?) is hue = +30 and saturation = 0.
If I want a winter look like arena the best choice is hue = +30 and saturation less then 0,
for example -100, so that green (then damned green

) will appear more white then
green.
On the contrary, when You put saturation more then 0, you can spot more details on the ground
but colors became too colorfully.
P.S.:
About AH performances, they depend on how your hardware can handle AH resources.
This does not mean that You needs the last GPU necessarily - It could help but not completely.
