I ran into an interesting LCD quirk. On VGA input these tend to allow >60 Hz refresh. That doesn't mean they actually allow greater than 60 frames per second to output with vsync, however. This gives fast paced games an annoying stutter that makes you think your video card is skipping frames.
I was aware of >60Hz being fakey on LCDs, but I had not seen it firsthand until now. I very rarely use LCDs on VGA, or run them below their native resolution which is usually where the >60Hz options come in and Windows may choose them automatically.
