You can set any refresh rate and resolution your hardware and software
allows, in both xfree 3 and 4. Just edit your XF86Config and adjust the

xfree4 can make use of ddc, and most monitors underestimate their
powers. For example, I have a very hard time of getting anything better
than 70hz under windows. Without the matrox control panel I can't even
force refresh settings, so windows is by far worse than linux :|
