This was all that was necessary for Nvidia GPUs, but it wasn't so simple for AMD GPUs. By default, the driver lets the application control this setting, but you can override it to disable VSync. Within those settings, found in the Manage 3D Settings section of the Nvidia Control Panel, there is an option to disable Vertical Sync. The GeForce drivers allow for specific graphics settings for individual games.
With the systems running Nvidia cards, this proved to be extremely simple.
