Monitor Refresh Rate

[Sean2111]

Is there some command or option tab in game to change this?
Some resolutions on my monitor are only properly available at certain refresh rates.
Most games allow the refresh rate to be changed.
It seems to me only 60Hz is available -although I do not see an option that lists this.

You would use your preferred resolution and set your refresh rate in your gpu monitor settings or use your monitor's built-in menu to select the refresh rate. Locate your monitor's spec sheet to see what refresh rates are supported at set resolutions. The game does not set your monitor's refresh rate.

Game must limit Refresh rate to 60.
I have set the game exe to fastest refresh available in Nvidia Control Panel .
I have set my monitor (its own settings using physical button) to display refresh on bottom right hand side of screen.
I use steam overlay to show FPS on top right.
I set Vsync on.
The game displays at 60Hz and 60fps at these settings..

Other games like Quake Live for example ,I set 180Hz in game ,and with Vsync i get 180HZ on screen and 180Fps on screen.
Most games do control the Refresh rate.
This game must limit Refresh to 60Hz.
I have moved the fps slider in game -this does nothing when Vsync is on.
Vsync will show max fps corresponding to refresh rate.

You test yourself.

Thanks for the reply so far by the way.
Got me thinking and I did try your suggestion.


Had another idea -another game I have played called Xonotic limits HDMI cabled monitors to 60HZ for some reason -maybe that happens in this game too?



(Since I use a laptop where I disable the laptop display and only display on my external monitor that supports up to 180HZ.)
