    Hello,

    I downloaded RivaTuner and OC'd my settings using the "performance 3D" setting. The only option that I set OUTSIDE of rivatuner (aka Nvidia Control Panel) is to force Vsync on and enable Triple Buffering(was experiencing tearing which is why I turned them on).

    However my max FPS, which is fine, is only 50 fps. My screen refresh rate is 60 MHz. Shouldnt it be capping at 60 instead of 50? What happened to those 10 frames? Or should I just not force vsync on, but to set it to "use application setting"? Thank you kindly.
