My old computer monitor was tube based, and on my graphics card I set
the refresh rate as high as possible because that produced a less
flickery image.

My new monitor is flat screen LCD, and my graphics card reports that
it only supports 60hz refresh rate. This seems unusually low, but is
this perfectly normal for this type of monitor?

Thanks.
