Low refresh rate

I have problems with my display, Benq g2225hda -- its refresh rate is 60Hz, although it should be more.

This is the part of xorg.conf, generated by nvidia-xconfig:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier     "Monitor0"
    VendorName     "Unknown"
    ModelName      "Unknown"
    HorizSync       28.0 - 33.0
    VertRefresh     43.0 - 72.0
    Option         "DPMS"
EndSection

With empty xorg.conf, the rate is the same.

I'm not sure what to do. Please, help me and my eyes! :-)

Re: Low refresh rate

Are you sure it should be more?
In the monitor page on BenQ site there is no mention of higher refresh rate.
Is the monitor resolution right? Have you checked in the monitor OSD?

With empty xorg.conf, the rate is the same.

*Without* xorg.conf and only with the bundled 10-evdev.conf and  10-quirks.conf files in /etc/xorg.conf.d the problem persist?
Is the command "nvidia-settings --load-config-only" launched when you log in your user session? If so try removing it.
