Which graphics card do you have? Some of them are more stubborn than others to get capped. If this happens to be a laptop with dual graphics, are you certain that the game is using the Nvidia one and not integrated?
If you are using the GeForce Experience program, be sure not to "optimize" the settings, this can make a mess on older games and can get in the way of fps capping. The option can be undone if it's already invoked.
I use Rivatuner also (on an AMD card), but the usual tool to add in if the Nvidia Control Panel is not going to work alone is Nvidia Inspector and explicitly set its frame cap to 60. Also try 59 or 61 to see if those help (this is assuming a 60 Hz monitor/screen, that's pretty standard but some of them can run higher).
