It would require a monitor with more than 60Hz as V-Sync synchronizes your framerate to the refresh rate of your monitor.

You know, even with Vsync off you're not getting any more than 60fps. If your monitor has a 60htz refresh rate, it can't display more than 60fps regardless of how many frames your GPU is creating.

You need to buy a monitor with a higher refresh rate 120/144htz. You could try overclocking your monitor, but unless it is a very high quality one it wont get you more than 65/70htz.
that's very bad news :(

Remind yourself that refresh rate is not the only thing that matters in a monitor.
