It does not matter if your monitor has a refresh rate of 85. If you feel that your FPS is capped by your monitor's refresh rate you can disable VSync. You can do it either through drivers or even in-game. Minimal artifacting might be present, but that is the tradeoff for getting the maximum speed possible. I won't even get into the 24/30/60 FPS debate now.
