No you don't, you need a total system (CPU + GPU) fast enough to keep the minimum FPS above the refresh rate of your monitor. This will ensure the best game play experience, and the reason to maximize the output of the FPS metric. Actual game play should should be set to vertical sync.


Most monitors today are LCD with a standard 60 Hz refresh rate.
