Even though I set the FPS_CAP: to 200 I am getting not more than 30. CPU is most of the time at 10% workload or less.
Or is this the wrong Varibale to set the fps-rate?
Or do I have to set it somewhere else?

I set mine to 400 and get it at the menu screen when in 800x600. if I crank up the size, it drops considerably, and is at about 50-70 in game. I'm sure the OpenGL merge will help this though.

Try these methods and see if your FPS improves.

Any updates, anotier? Have you tried setting PARTIAL_PRINT:YES in init.txt?
