Visiontek GF3 Ti200 problems

[numlock]

picked up this board from the good best buy deals
installed it and everything is going fine
i got the newest dets, win2k, tbird 1ghz, abit kt7a
but it seems in quake 3 ... whichever res i always max out at 90fps
at 640x480 i get from 80-90 fps and i get the same in 1024x768 and 1280x1024
when i do a timedemo i get about 100 fps for each resolution. shouldnt i be getting more fps for smaller resolutions? is something holding it down?

Well I'm probably not qualified enough to answer this, but I believe you need to disable vsync.

Display properties, settings, advanced, Geforce 3 Ti 200, additional properties..

3D antialiasing settings / Manually select the antialiasing mode: Select "Off (No antialiasing)"
Direct 3D settings / More Direct3D / Vertical sync mode: Select "Always off"
OpenGL settings / Vertical sync: Select "Always off"

I'm on 56K or I would look it up, but I think Q3 by default maxes out at 90 some FPS...it could be a cap by the programmers which needs a console command to shut it off(i know Half-life/Q2 is like that by default at 75 FPS I think). Try looking on some console command sites to see, you ar elucky though, my Ti200 is DOA!!

"problems?" that doesn't sound like much of a problem to me... maxing out at 90 fps constantly

Open up .cfg file in base q3 directory in wordpad
find seta com_maxfps
default is set to 85 or 100, reset to "0"

also check out this to increase your fps
