I can not say for sure or test it as I have ATI. It may be the case that your CPU is the bottleneck and FPS is limited only by CPU no matter what graphics settings you have. You can try running a track like the Black death with everything maxed out to see if you can stress GPU enough. (However it loads processor too.) Then you can run the same test with tripple buffering.

I mention some tips on running a test here http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...01&postcount=2

To make sure the performance is not stuck because of your CPU only you can try running the same test in a small window on low settings. If this does not give you big fps increase then it is CPU fault.

PS. Is it necessary to change pre-render frames? IIRC I always have them on auto/default. Increasing them causes input lag. Reducing - reduces performance. I would change it only if I have a very old card. But again for nVidia it may be different.
