What is your fram rate?

[DMGOD]

so are you guys basically saying its a BAD idea to "unlock" frame rate?

there is no point to disable vsync

[Ack-Ack]

That's true for the most part.  Although I had one coworker who for whatever reason could tell the difference between 60 and 75fps on her monitor.  She got eyestrain and headaches at 60, but was fine at 75.  Don't know why.

Wiley.

In the CRT monitors that was common with low refresh rates of 60Hz or less, not an issue with LCD/LED monitors.

Interesting. I wondered why my new card (gts 450) stayed pegged at 60fps. This game doesn't even make the cooling fan come on. Ive seen it dip down to 58fps in a furball loaded with field ack. lol.....

All the way turnt up settings anti alaising at most, with vsync I get 60, with out 130, but there's no point of not usig vsync

Had a gaming machine specifically built for me with a hot video card--hot sound card--plenty of RAM expandable to 6Gig.

Solid 60 unless clipboard is up then it's 55-58.  Drops to 45 50 on FSO with 30-40 guys taking off but goes back to 60 relatively fast.

If i turn off my vsync will i get a better FR then? I definently need that.

That is because lights create a strobe effect at 60 htz. If I look at a 60 htz monitor (not lcd flat screen) it drives me nuts with in 2 secs I see the effect.

plus the human eye can't see more then 60 fps

Actually, 72 is the more commonly accepted number, IIRC.

Yes. It has been known to cause issues with the game/your system, though.

Most people can tell the difference on a CRT using their peripheral vision.  Look slightly off to the side of the monitor and you'll notice the flicker.
