If you don't have v-sync enabled, you get tearing of the image. Which looks really bad. Why would you want that?

You don't always get tearing, it depends massively on the application in question and either way, some people prefer a more fluid fps rate with tearing to having the fps jump in divisions of 60.

I for one have never had any issues ever with running IL2 with v-sync off.

v-sync on a 120hz monitor would be at 120 Hz, or ought to be.
