Question Bought new 180hz monitor but playing games on like 60fps doesn't seem smooth.

Hello gentlemen, so yea I bought new monitor like a week ago ( AOC Q27G4XF 180HZ, 2560 x 1440 ) and I don't know if my eyes just got used to high fps and refresh rate or something but I saw some videos people playing good games on 2K monitor and they look buttery smooth on 60fps. So just wanted to ask maybe I bought like a bad monitor or something maybe I set it up wrong or I don't know. Maybe my pc is too old for something like this, cause I have RTX 2060, maybe that has to do with something, also maybe my display port of this pc is outdated. Cause imma buy RTX 4070ti Super pretty soon, well a whole new pc so maybe it's gonna feel smooth then but I don't know if that adds anything. Just wanna get to the bottom of this cause I read so many threads and don't see what could be the problem, so yea feel free to comment and help if you can, I can add pics or other stuff if needed just ask, thank u.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

What game(s) is(are) you taxing the system/display with? What driver version are you on for your Nvidia GPU?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
Motherboard: AMD B450M-K

If you run a game (any game) at a different rate from what the monitor is set at you will always get weird things happening.
Set the monitor to run ay 60FPS and then 60FPS games should look as good as possible.
That's why g-sync and free sync are are slowly becoming a standard, they adjust the monitor to the games frame rate automatically giving you the best results.

Do you mean like set my monitor to 60hz or? Cause i tried doing that, then tried to cap my fps to 60fps it still seems choppy you know
