It's in the ATI CP or CCC for OGL. I'm not sure which one you are using and sorry that I can't provide a path, but I use neither. All my settings go through ATI Tray Tools. For D3D, you can't set it in the ATI CP or CCC, because each game dictates triple buffering. There is an option in ATI Tray Tools in D3D and it works for most games. However, some do not and setting Triple Buffering in D3D will either cause the game not to start or crash. Good Luck.

You can get a major framerate decrease with V-sync on if you don't have 'Triple Buffering' enabled. Toggle Triple Buffering on and off in the "Compatibility" tab in the OpenGL dialog box. Be forewarned, though; triple buffering takes up a lot of video memory. If you experience stutter, then you'd best disable both V-sync and triple buffering. Remember, if you don't have V-sync on there's no need for triple buffering.
