Problem solved! was a corrupt install.

No, I'l ltry that but it's not the horizontal tearing that you are thinking of, at least I think it's not.

Yes, I have tried underclocking, and I already said that. I can literally run any other 3d game for several hours and not have problems.

No problem, I've just seen this "V-sync doesn't kill framerates!" stuff spread around a lot latey, and I'm really not sure why but it irritates me... I guess because I can see it in actual gameplay. I just wish this entire problem would magically go away in the first place lol.

Wow even better than the last post, thanks for the info. Also as you said, I was able to find a triplebuffering option in the tribes config INI and I set it to true. It helped out a lot, but I can still notice stuff because I just notice every little thing like that... I've read triple buffering...

Turning down the refresh rate doesn't do anything ace. BFG is completely correct in his repsonses and there's really no reason to back them up as it is pretty much common knowledge that vsync will kill framerates.

Basically what BFG10k said. The guy he's replying to is totally wrong. Snowman: thanks for the tip, I didn't know nvidia even supported triple buffering, I'll dig around in the INI.

I DON'T want to use v-sync if possible, it kills my framerates.

My 6800GT runs fine, I get 63FPS 1600x1200 in Doom3, high quality... the works. I am happy pretty much. I have noticed, though, that sometimes I get the usal tears or inconsistancies that go horizontally across the monitor. It is my understanding that this happens when your FPS goes higher than...

That runs in windowed mode so you can easily monitor all of your temps? I've seen screenshots posted of it before but I'm not sure of the name... :(
