There is a difference, even if you're not changing your fps-limit. Personally I've limited FFXIV to 60fps (with RTSS), so the physics don't break (hair, clothes, boobs if anyone cares).
If the physics wouldn't break, I'd go right back to 144fps for two reasons:

1. I can finally recognize something, when I'm turning my camera! With 60fps it's a blurry mess. With 144fps you can see everything quite clear.
2. FFXIV has a hidden V-sync or something similar. When the game can't hold 60fps, it dips down to 40fps.
I see this mostly happen in Limsa. But if I have it locked to 144fps, my fps dips down to around 90-100fps. It's quite strange, that my PC handles easily 90fps, but once the 60fps-cap is on it's much worse!

btt: There's a clear difference between consistent 60fps, constitent 90fps, and consistent 144fps.

How is this possible? RL basically has >5*10^44 "fps" with only our eyes (changes with >200fps still noticeable) being the limit. How is it for you, when you see cars passing or when you're turning around? ôo
