Can a monitor dictate the GPU performance?

I'd like to ask if my cheap/simple monitor that runs on 60hz, 5ms and 1080p can affect my FPS count. Is that possible?

(V-Sync is off)

Don't think it's possible, but why are you asking? If you're asking if you can use the cheap monitor for benchmarking purposes, then yeah go for it. If you're asking so you can use it as your main panel, you won't be able to see anything above 60FPS so why would it matter?

Uhh...fps amount?

What if the monitor has a problem or something? I know the odds are low, I'm just being curious. Even if the monitor had an issue or smthng, I dont see why the gpu would reduce the amount fps being delivered... Right?

Hm, I don't know.  If the power consumption of your graphics card is higher when sync to vblanc is disabled than when it is enabled, you could take that as indication that your GPU is working harder (for some reason) with snyc disabled.  That's assuming that your computer consumes more power when the graphics card renders more FPS, like mine does.

 

What happens when you disconnect the monitor from the graphics card?  Does that affect performance?

If the monitor had a problem, the problem would only be in displaying the image.
