Several posted similar "normal" refresh rates. Both monitors on my dual
monitor system have a refresh rate recommended by the manufacturer of
85hz. I set both monitors resolutions and refresh rates to each
manufacturer's recommended setting. Is there any reason I shouldn't use
the manufacturers' recommended settings?

Both manufacturers give other acceptable settings, but both recommend
using one setting, each at 85hz. If monitor quality is a consideration,
one monitor was ranked number one by PC World.
