in the developer console, you can enter "fps_max 60". you might need to do it at the menu before you load your save

Portal has a "wait for vsync" option in the video settings. Turn it on and see

capping framerate alone did something but caused inconsistent, weird screen tear. wait for vsync alone did nothing. both together = perfect
