Hi. Good day.
Just wondering if there is a way to record gameplay in 60fps while monitor refresh rate is set to 75hz ??
I did it before but the video don't look as smooth as 60fps with 60hz.
The reason for that is I have a 75hz monitor so thinking if it's possible to fully utilize the hz for an even smoother gameplay while still get a smooth 60fps gameplay video for Youtube.
Yes I know I can do 75fps / 75hz video and let Youtube change the frame rate to 60fps while processing the video or I change the frame rate while doing editing but the result is not great.

You are uploading the videos to YouTube at 1080p resolution. Unless your clips receive significant views, YouTube will not apply the highest VP9 compression for any content at 1080p or lower. Since I don’t receive many views and am restricted to a 1080p capture on my display, I adjust them to 2560x1440 while using Avidemux and ABR 30,000 bitrate compression, which delivers excellent quality. Although resizing to a larger resolution without sufficient pixels might cause blur, the higher compression compensates effectively. Many of the blurry 1080p videos on YouTube could be improved if viewers followed these steps, making them clearer at 1440p with better compression.

This adjustment may not fully address the refresh rate problem, but it should enhance the appearance at 60Hz capture for uploads that are currently 1080p or lower without substantial views.

You might want to share a link to your YouTube channel so I can review the videos you’ve already uploaded. That would help identify what needs improvement. Alternatively, you could embed any of the videos you’ve posted to YT.

I understand the concern about the video quality requirement, but it doesn't seem related to your main question.

Windows' native game recorder captures at either 30 or 60 frames per second, without considering refresh rate or frame rate. In this case, most screen capture tools will just mirror the frame buffer at a fixed interval, no matter the output configuration.

As mentioned, I understand it won't immediately fix the refresh rate issue, but without reviewing your YouTube uploads, I can't be certain it's the only cause. YT clips sometimes appear slightly unstable, and viewers often report different correction methods, which usually don't work well. The compression technique I described has helped smooth out videos for me, though the improvement isn't dramatic.

Everything is okay if I record at 60fps with a refresh rate below 60hz, but the recording software struggles when the settings change to 75hz. The movement appears off. It doesn't matter showing my YouTube video since all of them are recorded at 60fps/60hz, no issues there.

What I expected was this, and my reasoning supports keeping those settings. The idea of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" resonates here. These are the kinds of adjustments people with high refresh displays often make regularly, and it's not a major concern.
