Intel Extreme Graphics 2.. Disable Vsync??

Hi all


Can anyone advise me on how to turn off Vsync on this card? I found other graphical tweaking options, but not this one. I have to deal with this onboard video for a little while longer, so please help if you can.


Thanks!



BTW, any other ways to tweak this "card" would be greatly appreciated.

Just so that you know, when linked with "Intel, "extreme" means "crap."

Good luck on trying to find something to tweak....

I tried it out.. no go!

The following are NOT supported:

- mobile and integrated graphics controllers

I tried it anyway and installed it... they're are no options for disabling direct 3d, but their are options for disabling it on open gl. Only probllem is it detects the memory clocks at 133mhz, when they should be at 266 mhz+ Probally the reason it doesnt work properly with integrated video.

Update: I bought myself a new Geforce 4 for under 30 dollars, and Enjoying it very much. For what it is worth, the Intel EG2 wasnt half bad.

It's also nice to have a backup video solution incase this new agp card fails, as I'll have something to use untill I can get another card

The memory is right cuz it is most likely DDR ram... as in Double Data Rate or 133x2=266Mhz
