Re: V-Sync capping framerate at 60 fps how to workaround

@DeejeyCris  Vertical sync will lock your framerates to the refresh rate of your monitor, so if your monitor is running at 60 Hz, you'll get a limit of 60 fps with v-sync enabled.  This is unavoidable based on why v-sync works the way it does and isn't fixable, as in, you can't get the benefits of v-sync without the fps limit.

If your monitor doesn't run faster than 60 Hz, you could try the "fast" option for v-sync in the Nvidia Control Panel: this allows the game to run at up to double your monitor's refresh rate.

    Hi setting the "fast" option seems to have done the trick, thanks a lot!
