For the resolution, open Options, then the graphics settings page; the resolution should be listed above all the other settings. As long as it either matches the resolution of your monitor or is a supported scaled-down version, you should be fine. Playing at an unsupported resolution can make the game choppy.
Having GeForce Experience is fine, but make sure it's not set to optimize your TS3 settings. This can often cause issues as GFE thinks you should be using different settings than the game does.
To check your framerates, bring up the cheats console (crtl-shift-C) and enter "fps on" without quotes. A number will appear in the upper right corner of the screen, and it should never go above the refresh rate of your monitor. If it does, there are plenty of ways to cap it. This is a good guide to using the built-in Nvidia Control Panel, or Inspector if CP doesn't work:

If Inspector doesn't work either, there are other tools to try.
How to I determine the refresh rate of my monitor?
Nevermind I figured out my refresh rate, it's 144. So far it hasn't gone above that.
Any other speed tips you have would be much appreciated. I want to play the game but it is just. so. slow.
