Oh, and those 120hz LCDs are rubbish, they interpolate between frames basically.
Well as the owner of both a slightly 'older' model 1080p lcd with a 60hz refresh and one of the new fangled 1080p 120hz refresh screens I can tell you that your assumption is rubbish. Both have a 2ms responce time but the 120hz is sooooooo much smoother looking with action on the sceen. Basicially to the point my pc or blu-ray content or hd channels are like looking through a window at a real scene. Matter of fact I was so impressed I now use two 42" LG-70 on my computer to dual screen with.

There seems to be some misconception and alot of personal bias in this thread.
I prefer v-sync on. It's a personal preference. Some people prefer V-sync off, it's their choice.
***SCREEN TEARING, and what it means to you!***
Screen tearing can ONLY be seen on a moving object, faster moving objects means more tearing. If you're sitting in station just looking at your ship, you won't see tearing because there isn't alot of fast movement. Go outside the station and spin your camera around really fast. If your monitor is set at 60 Hz and your framerate is above that, you will notice that if you spin the screen fast enough the station will effectively be split up into parts for very VERY brief moments.
If you do not notice this with v-sync off then don't bother turning it on. If you DO notice it but it doesn't bother you then leave v-sync off. I notice it and it bugs me, so I use v-sync.
It's ALL personal preference. Some people just may not even notice it because they don't care. If you like v-sync then use it, if you don't then don't bother.
To those that are saying that v-sync lowers your system heat then you're not entirely correct. V-sync produces 2 frames for every frame the monitor shows, and if you have Triple Buffering on then you're producing 3 frames for every 1 that shows. It helps keep your framerate smooth because if something happens that slows down the GPU then it has extra frames to fall back on.
I'm sorry but did you just bring logic and a tolerant even handed view of other peoples opinions into an eve-o gd thread?
BURN HIM!
