With CRT monitors, different refresh rates very really easy to spot - 60 Hz was very flickery.

Yeah, 60Hz on a CRT was more or less the minimum tolerable refresh rate, and 75-85Hz was noticeably better. And that's just for trying to display a static image without distracting flickering. Displaying smooth motion is a lot harder.
