I would be looking to see if sax has wrongly set up something which is restricting the X server from running at the higher refresh rate. However the obvious candidates (HorizSync and VertRefresh) are correct according to the specs here: http://www2.computeruniverse.net/urlmapper2.asp?mapurl=/products/e90214287/d2/specifications/aoc-193fw-19-tft-widescreen.asp&urlmapped=true
Next i would look at why they have included a modeline for 1440x900. Perhaps it is needed, perhaps it is unduly restrictive. (I assume you have actually checked it IS running at 1440x900 - xwininfo -root is the command to test that). Try commenting out the 1440x900 modeline and restarting X. If it doesn't fix it uncomment it again. Afterthought: what does nvidia-settings say?
