Refresh rate is only in CRTs. Yes, LCD need to update their pixels, but they are not refreshing them. They are not making them 'fresh' and 'new' again because they are always 'fresh'. CRTs grow 'old' and need to be made 'fresh again'.

Yes, your Omega driver could be the culprit; maybe other versions won't have this apparent bug.
Still, do you perceive any differences for refresh rates higher than 60Hz? To counter the placebo effect which dalton9267 mentioned, ask a friend to choose several refresh rates at random, so that you don't know the current refresh rate while observing the screen.
