I have 120 herz refresh rate in windows
but when I start doom3 it switches to 60 herz, this looks bad and is not
good for the eyes, and there doesn´t seem to be any way to override it.

Right click on the doom3 icon on the desktop, and change the Target Properties so it looks something like this: "E:\GAMES\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" +disconnect +r_displayRefresh 120 www.tweakguides.com has more info. rms >> Stay informed about: DOOM 3 screws up my refresh rate !

Type "r_swapinterval 1" to for Doom 3 to use VSync (as it somehow overrides NVidia's and ATI settings.) >> Stay informed about: DOOM 3 screws up my refresh rate !
