so yeah, is that possible? do you typically have to set the quality settings at the start of a game and then enable v-sync to match the fps & refresh rates?
or is it possible to tell the game "run whatever quality is needed in whatever section I'm in so that I'm hitting 60fps and synch with my monitor's 60Hz refresh"? I guess this might make the game change quality settings dynamically, HQ in easier low-demand parts and MedQ in more demanding bits.
possible? I guess bottom line is I want to avoid overbuying a graphics card (as in, I don't need a card that can do 120fps if the monitor refresh is 60Hz cuz then half of the card's work is being totally wasted)
