If you look in the file /etc/XF86Config you should see some default Modeline statements. Try these with your video card and see if they provide a reasonable refresh rate (check it using xvidtune ). Try different settings to see which one provides the best performance. If you want to extract better performance than that provided by the defaults you will have to manually adjust the modeline statements but this is a very black art and you will have to understand all about hsync, vsync pulses and crap like that.
