No.

Enabling Triple Buffering for OpenGL-based games such as Doom 3, Quake 4, Prey or Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is very simple - go to your graphics card's control panel and enable it from there. However enabling Triple Buffering for Direct3D-based games - the bulk of modern games - actually requires more effort. You will need to use a utility called D3DOverrider which comes with RivaTuner - see the bottom of this page of my Nvidia Forceware Tweak Guide for more details.

Without triple buffering working and with vsynk on you could have only 60, 30 or 15 fps. 35 or 50 fps for example would not be possible. I use ATI Tray Tools instead of D3DOverrider.
