u must be talking about your refresh rate. for UT03/UT04 it can actually increase frames. its kinda hard to explain on a forum on how to do it....but i can toss a link to ya with a tweak guide.
Guide
about mid way look something called "Desire Refresh Rate"....it will explain it there for ya. |

refresh rate cheetah
75 hz will help with seeing things faster, but, if your monitor cant handle it/isnt set for it you will do more harm than good
ex: gpu (vid card) set for 75hz, and monitor set for 60 hz, the gpu is sending out info faster than the monitor can handle, and so you see tearing or jagged edges around things, and thats what vsync is for, to equalize the refresh rate and eliminate the tearing. but if you leave it alone at 60 (which is the default for eveything and if you havent screwed with it it should be that way) you'll be just fine
but you could up it, and then turn on vsync in all the games you play, but then you'll go down in frames... |

i got 1280x1024 LCD/TFT screen, or whatever you call it, 17" i think. the ones that are small at the back, not the big CRT ones, but when you press the screen it gets dissorted and you break it..
im at 75Hrz now, so far so good. |
