Framerate over 160 results in your ship jumping around all the time for everyone else. So, yes, logic, and yes, you would be a cheater. It's also quite easy to prove.
How does the game determine what the appropriate refresh rate is, anyway? I know it doesn't force it to 60Hz, as my 3D LCD runs at 120Hz when I'm not playing in 3D mode. If it simply picks the highest supported rate for the chosen resolution, people who have a super fast display, such as some high-end 3D Plasma displays (which boast refresh rates of 600Hz or more) just might be out of luck.
Then again, I doubt there are many who would play on such a setup, but it is something to consider.
