HELP - Optimizing GF3 performance

[DealMan]

HI guys,

I just got a new 1.4 T-Bird w/ a GF3 card. But I can't Counter Strike to go past 60fps in 1024x768 OpenGL! My fps_max setting is at 100. I tested the max at 55 and it maxed at 55, but it won't go past 60 no matter what I do!

Please HELP!! Thanks a lot!

Is fsaa enabled?

v-sync enabled? It should be disabled. Check in driver properties.

Go to the Windows display properties, then into advanced videocard settings, and basically right-click on everything and read the help that comes up. It's a great way to find out what's good for performance and what's good for improved video quality...

I wouldn't disable V-sync though, it will cause page tearing - and besides, why would you want more than min. 85 fps?

Try the Nvidia refresh rate fix

Good job, old fart!!

Sorry, always wanted to say that to someone, and with your nickname being "OldFart" and all, it worked out great

Old fart has the answer but no explanation........


I'm assuming you are running Windows2000. For thoes that do not know, W2K is stuck at a refresh rate of 60 and you need the pacth to be able to fix it....


Just an FYI

I was too lazy to type out the explanation
