Why 59.94hz option only?

[MyLittleFella]

Hey y'all. My PC config is the one from my signature. I just re-installed windows 10 1607 (it's my favorite edition) and all of my games are now showing 59 or 59.94hz in some cases. Why's that?

 

My monitor is 60Hz. The GPU driver says I'm on 60hz.. The Windows options says I'm on 60Hz. So why is that happening? When I was with Windows 7 or even Win10 1607 none of that ever happened.

 

What is going on? Is this because of nvidia driver updates or????

 

Thanks y'all, happy saturday.

 

*edit*

59Hz Games:
Dirt 4
Dirt Rally 2.0

59.94Hz Games:
Battlefield V

Is this causing an issue or are you just noticing this.?

 

With refresh rates, its often something like 29.97 fps in reality, but 30 fps is normally shown. Im guessing this is mostly rounding.

 

Also please update windows, 1607 has had support dropped for a while now.

I'm just noticing. I'm not really feeling any differences.

Unless you like having a massive security vulnerability, you should probably update to 1809 (current version).

 

Plus, Nvidia is bringing ray tracing to GTX cards; so if you want to take advantage of that in BFV you'll need 1809's added support for DXR.
