Go inside your video driver, find this setting, set it to "On" and this "problem" is history forever.
no, vsync was invented to prevent screen tearing.
aye and it swats that nasty FPS over-activity-fly along with it. No need to fiddle around with application internal fps limits.
When a system can't deliver what it should by it's own specs i.e. 60 FPS with a 60 Hz LCD display without overheating then there is a general cooling problem. Working around such a problem with fps limits works only temporary because those problems only get worse over time. So fixing the issue itself is key.

Vsync comes with an overhead by itself, some people reported better performance without v-sync with LoG2. And as said before, between 30fps and 60fps there is much room for more power saving.
