Verical sync is an attempted communication between the game, and the video drivers, to match the refresh rate your desktop is running at, and what refresh rate the game is running at. The option in Geforce properties under OpenGL that says Enable VSYNC (Usually On by Default) should be left alone. If you have a proper monitor driver for windows, you will get a list of supported refresh rates in Advanced Display Properties under the Adapter tab. Setting the refresh rate to 85 here should make games run at 85 by using Vertical Sync. However from what I've seen, Quake and MOH dont use it properly so you have to set it for the refresh rate you want with r_displayRefresh. If you set this to 85 and do vid_restart, you will see your refresh rate go to 85, and theoretically lifting the so called barrier on FPS.

This is the reason they set com_maxfps to default to 85. I guess to prevent texture tearing and graphic mess ups.
