I don't think VSync works in the menu, only in-match
already capped fps at 60 with RTSS
maybe check RTTS is working because since the update it's been reported as not, same with FPS Monitor which I use, apparently nVIDIA Overlay works & I guess the Steam FPS counter works

Make a config file with "User.cfg" name and put it in game directory
inside the file should look like this :

Thread.ProcessorCount 6
Thread.MaxProcessorCount 6
Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 12

my cpu is 6 cores 12 threads, make adjustments to that numbers if you have different core\thread count
