Why if i turn on 60hz on my 180hz monitor, it looks worse than on a dedicated 60hz monitor.

Basically the title. For example: whenever I complained that menus in games are locked to 60 fps, people call me crazy, because they play like that all the time and it's fine for them. Or when my in-game fps drops to 60, 80, even 100 the game feels so much choppier than If I were to play on a lower Hz monitor with the same fps.

Except I don't think they are having the same experience. I have 2 monitors. My newer one is a 2560x1440 180hz, and my older, 1920x1080 60hz, which I've been using most of my life. I used to play cs:go on it and many other FPS's and never have I once complained about the smoothenes of my screen, but I was always curious how higher Hz feels. When I finally upgraded, of course it felt amazing, except when I had low fps. And low no as in "below 60 fps" low, but as in "anything under 60% of my refresh rate" low. Luckily this only happends when I play demanding titles without framegen or upscaling, OR when something is capped to 60 fps, but still. I can't be alone on this.

Maybe it's worth noting I have a VA monitor.

Couple of questions

Why does changing scope magnification change the sesitivity?
It doesn't make sense and is so inconvenient personally, because it makes my aim worse but I guess that's a non issue because nobody uses that feature anyways. If anyone has a workaorund plz comment.

Also how come in the binds it doesn't say that scroll wheel changes weapon stance? You can't even unbind it, This game really doesn't tell you anything does it? I think the devs should work on that.

Is there even a benefit of having your weapon point upwards/downwards instead of having it in regular stance when you're scoping? I even noticed it takes more time to scope if you don't have defeault stance, so what's the point?

Why does my scope sometimes go black when moving camera and aiming?

I hate how fps is locked to 60 in menus and inventory.

Small rant.
Why did they add this? As I understand it is intentional to prevent the GPU from overheating and draining power but I like my menus smooth. And they aren't because I instantly drop from 180 fps to 60-ish once I open inventory. Couldn't they just a switch in game settings to turn it on or off?

EDIT: I just don't get why in the comments, instead of trying to help me or just scroll away, people complain how much of a bitch I am for liking convinience.
