only one refresh rate, 60hz!

If your monitor is detected as 'plug and play monitor' then this is normal
behaviour. You need to re-install your monitor driver after any install of
Nvidia drivers - it should show up in the list of monitor drivers available
and once installed you get the correct list of refresh rates available for
your specific monitor.
