I was reading an article on Guru3D regarding 8800 GTX SLI performance in BF2, there is a statement regarding setting the screen resolution to something other than the native game resolutions AND changing a console setting to eliminate a FPS cap. Anyone know anything about these two options? The .bat file change seems straight forward enough, never heard of being able to eliminate a FPS cap in this game. I used to in CS in the config file, any ideas how to do this or if it is still true? The article was from January 2007 (see attached).

General help
The MGC Chatbox Evo is really easy to use
You can :
You can :
- Send chats : you just have to enter the text in the dedicated input field and then to validate it by pushing the return key ou by clicking on the OK button.
- Format the chats : once you un-collapse the chatbox formatting toolbar by clicking on the BBCode button, you have access to different formatting options for your chats. You can format a chat by selecting a part (or the totality) of it and then select one of the buttons/list. You can also add empty formatting tags by selecting nothing and clicking one of the buttons/menu thus allowing you to add the chat text afterwards between these tags.*
- Access to the different channels : you can have access to different channels restricted to only some usergroupds or for specifics use of the chatbox. The different channels are accessible from the buttons on the left of the chatbox.*
- Edit your chats (or others chats) : the edition of a chat can be done by a simple double-click on it.*
- Use specific commands : some commands can be accessible in the chatbox depending on the will of the administrator(s) of your forum. These commands let you execute specific actions of formatting, management, etc... You will herebelow the information on the command which are accessible to you. You must notice that you are not forced to use the command prefixes (/command_name) when you use them in the channel they are attached to (except in the general channel).*

Don't see the need to cap or uncap a frame rate. Anything faster than your refresh rate is just wasting cycles. I run my LCD at 60hz, so I don't NEED a FPS faster than that, as long as my video card can keep it solidly at 60hz.

IMHO, There is a MAJOR difference in smooth play between 60 FPS and 100 FPS

Thanks Onji, tried it, but it doesn't seem to override the in game settings, set your in game to 800x600 and you get 800x600??? TweakGuides talks about both subjects, I need to try some and test them.
