Yes, you can adjust the refresh rate in some games settings to control performance and smoothness.

I have an Asus G751 and I put Mobile G-Sync in it and overclock the screen to 103Hz (it is the max stable). I can play any game that has refresh rate setting to 103Hz but I have problem. In Dota 2, it doesn't have a refresh rate setting and it wont do 103Hz. I tried the -freq and -refresh but it didn't make any difference. I also heard people to set Max_FPS but that is just an fps limiter. I can't run the game at window mode as the G-Sync hack only works in full screen mode. Is there any program that can force it to run at a set refresh rate?
the refresh rate settings act like a frame limit, just like you can't make a game run faster if your graphics card isn't strong enough (unless you reduce quality).
Steam provides suitable launch settings for many valve titles.
Refresh rate refers to how many images a screen shows each second, while FPS limit controls how many images a graphics card can show per second.
mentioned that Dota 2 doesn't have a "refresh rate setting." A game doesn't change your monitor's refresh rate—it's about locking the game to a specific frame rate so it matches your screen. This is similar to what a FPS limiter does, just note that FPS and refresh rate refer to the same concept: both measure images per second in Hz. They use different names for each purpose.
Certainly! Source games typically utilize your monitor's refresh rate.
