Is there a driver-level frame lock utility for nV GPUs?

Featured Replies

I am looking for a driver-level method to lock frames in FSX. As we know, sometimes running UNLIMITED can lead to frame rate surges and jerky video at times. There are also priorization benefits in running UNLIMITED that limiting frames in FSX seems to override, or at least adversely affect. It seems to me a driver level frame rate limiter would solve this conundrum. Any thoughts? I see nV has something called just that, nVidia Frame Lock, but it seems to be geared towards syncing displays for multi or stereo, or would this maybe work?Noel
