Is there any difference between a frame rate at a monitors refresh rate, and a frame rate above a monitors refresh rate?

Is there any difference between a frame rate at a monitors refresh rate, and a frame rate above a monitors refresh rate? If my monitor has a 60hz refresh rate, should I be able to notice any difference whatsoever between say 60fps and 500fps?

You're probably not likely to notice a framerate above 60 fps, but you do notice if it ever goes below it. That's why 100 fps seems so smooth because you have a large buffer to drop down before you notice anything. :)
