I thought I read *somewhere* that Max attempts to keep the Vsync to the Hz specified in Graphics (by using timing methods), even if the machine has Vsync Disabled or is running at a different refresh rate. Anyone else hear this?

One Eyed Jack: What's Fixed rate timing? Is it like the "retro 64" method which I currently used?

xlsior: so you are saying that even if you specify 60Hz in Max, your fresh rate is still 100Hz? Have you tried setting it to 60Hz with graphics and then using flip -1 and then measuring the FPS. Would it be 100 or 60 I wonder?
