I checked the rate when playing and it's around 100-150, and my monitor Hz is 60. How can i cape it accordingly? I have an AMD Radeon graphic card btw, I tried looking around but only found outdated solutions.
Use the AMD control panel that came with your card to arrange for vertical refresh (Always On) and Triple Buffering. Which control panel it is depends on which card you have, some will be called Radeon Pro others might still have Crimson or Catalyst. Usually you can get to it from a right-click on the desktop or in the system tray.
If that's not enough to lock things in, and it often isn't, or if gameplay in windowed mod is required, then the next tool we add is RivaTuner Stats Server (RTSS).

(the real downloads are 2/3 down the page, ignore any in the upper right corner as those would be rogue ads if you have no ad blocker)
Set up a profile for TS3.exe (for Patch 1.69) or TS3W.exe (with the "W" for 1.67) and set the frame limit to 60 explicitly. Note that unlike other tools we discuss here, RTSS must be running in order to have any effect. It can be set to start up with Windows, but be sure to minimize it (the "-" button) and not "x" it out when finished looking at or adjusting its settings as then it won't be running anymore. If you set it to display the fps rates, then you will always have a visual cue as to whether it is indeed running; the value that it displays is the same as the cheats console fps command except in prettier colors.
Thank you so much for this @igazor !
So I've been trying to find the options you mentioned in the AMD control panel :
- Vertical refresh : is it this one higlighted in yellow?

- Triple buffering : I found it just below in "Advanced"
