Never tried above 70 Hz. maybe I should?

If your monitor supports above 70Hz for the resolution that you are using, then you should try above 70Hz. You will see the difference.
 
I use 75 hertz. For some reason when I try to set it to 80+, it will get this weird distortion on the edges of the screen.
 
I was 85 on my old CRT but with my new 21 inch set at 1680x1050 I only can get it to 60 i can not tell the diffrents between the 2.
