Good Afternoon codered2323,
I see you're looking for assistance with an external monitor that is connected with your MacBook Air, so let's see how we can help.
If the display connected with your MacBook Air is a supported display, you can set your display to dynamically adjust its refresh rate to match the frame rate of content rendered by the GPU. The option to do this would only appear if the connected display supports changing the refresh rate. For assistance with checking this, take a look at the following resource:
Use Adaptive Sync with your Mac
If this doesn't help, but you're certain that the display supports changing the refresh rate with your MacBook Air, you'll want to Contact Apple Support so they can look into this with you in more detail.
Have a great day!
