as for what mode you should set your receiver to for it to sound the best...

it doesnt really matter. we all prefer different settings. personally i just leave mine on either standard dolby or scifi most of the time.

as for getting surround sound.... obviously you will want your audio settings set to 5.1 (or whatever your speaker system is) in order to get surround sound. its not perfect (look up 4d sound) but its not bad.

as far as input settings.... from the ps3 you should be running either hdmi to the receiver if you are using it for both audio and visual or a spdif optical cable to the receiver if you are running the monitor direct from the ps3 and you are using the receiver just for audio.
