I have 120 herz refresh rate in windows
but when I start doom3 it switches to 60 herz, this looks bad and is not
good for the eyes, and there doesn´t seem to be any way to override it.

    Right click on the doom3 icon on the desktop, and change the Target 
Properties so it looks something like this:
"E:\GAMES\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" +disconnect +r_displayRefresh 120

www.tweakguides.com has more info.

If you experience tearing, that means you do not have VSync enabled.
Type "r_swapinterval 1" to for Doom 3 to use VSync (as it somehow
overrides NVidia's and ATI settings.)
