Should i use 59.94 or 60?

This number is sometimes rounded to 60 fps, but it is best to use 59.94 fps unless you really mean 60 fps. High definition equipment can often play and record at this frame rate, but 59.94 fps is much more common because of NTSC compatibility.

Why 59.94 fps?
Knowledgeable engineers know that 59.94 fields per second is a legacy of the NTSC color system, because prior to 1954, black-and-white video was locked to the 60Hz frequency of standard AC current in the United States.

Should i edit at 60 fps?
We are talking 2 very different things here. Because 60 fps capture more details, it also captures movement better. If your scene has a lot of movement 30 fps could make the footage look blurry and bad. With 60 fps, you would gain smoother footage, and you will thank yourself in the end for doing it.

Is 60hz better than 59.94 hz gaming?
There is no difference between 59 Hz and 60 Hz, in terms of performance. Both 59 Hz and 60 Hz are translated to 59.94 Hz before they are sent to the monitor's chip and should, therefore result in identical performance.

In general, you are advised to keep the game's default settings and continue to play the game with a 60fps cap. The fps cap that the game uses is determined by the your monitor refresh rate (typically 60Hz or 120Hz), and dividing it by the "iPresentInterval" value.
