  • Go to NVIDIA Control Panel, by right-clicking on the desktop or on the nvidia icon at system tray, or by finding it inside Windows Control Panel.
  • Go to 3D Settings → Manage 3D settings.
  • Go to the second tab: Program Settings.
  • Select a program to customize, most likely you will click on “Add” button and select “duke3d.exe” from the list.
  • Scroll down the settings list, find Vertical sync and select Off.
  • Enjoy!
