For those who experience low FPS, or FPS synced to vertical refresh even when set not to, try the following.

Before launching TDM for the first time after logging in to your DM of choice, run nvidiasettings and select 'OpenGL Settings'. Move the slider for 'Image Settings' to any position (& back again if you want). Mine is normally set for 'High Quality', but if I move it to any other setting and back again, TDM then starts with full frame rate.

I used to have to launch TDM multiple times, over and over, until I got full frame rate. Now it works properly every time as long as I make that adjustment before first launching.

This has annoyed me for freaking years. It's the only game I've seen do so, though I haven't launched old doom3 in a long time.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
