They exist, but I think they would have to be very old to have such a limitation. Every CRT I've seen going back to 1997 or so has some sort of overscan feature built in.

Boys...

ATI Tools has a handy refresh lock feature - you can force all applications to use whatever resolution and refresh rate you so desire.  Similarly, nVidia's display drivers also (used to) allow you to do this.  If they no longer do, one of the advanced tweak programs available will.

AFAIK, this will force even FS to conform to the system's designated refresh rate.

Actually, on the subject of FPS limits, Inferno builds seem to have 120 FPS according to the indicator.

I get 120 FPS with SLI enabled and 60 FPS with SLI disabled

I simply use this to get 75Hz on OpenGL.

Go to download and then click on RefreshLock instead as it does not modify display properties and so can easily be toggled and disabled when not needed.
Just enable it and set the refresh rate you want and start the game, no registry hacking needed.
