Default Framerate low with FX5200?

Shouldn't I be getting more than 80fps in quake 3? I know it's
pointless having moe but it's a pride thing, you know :-)

Barton 2500+ @ 2.0 GHz (and climbing slowly - must get 2.2+)
512mb PC3200 Dual channel
FX5200 128mb
NF7-S mobo
120gig SATA hdd

cheers !!

Setting maxfps to 0 does the same.

Try disabling V-Sync.


/seta com_maxfps 999

disable vsync in-game and the control panel
