/g/ what is the maximum amount of HZ that HDMI cable can pass through?
I have a samsung 24" 1080p monitor which is stock 60hz but is able to overclock to 75hz. I overclocked it and most of the time i am seeing artifacts, blackscreens, screen tearing and flickering. Is it due to shitty HDMI cable?

Not due to the cable, overclocking your monitor fucks with your drivers if you crank it too high, try finding a frequency that is stable

yea i got driver errors and then it crashes. so you think i shouldnt even try oc'ing monitor?
but still, how much can hdmi handle?

your hdmi doesn't really matter, you can overclock your monitor but start at your base frequency and move up in increments until it doesn't fuck up anymore and you should be fine

>cables pass through hertz
this is correct, but op is still a fucking idiot
i saw some monitor overclocking articles saying cables do matter
>>53774029
It depends on the HDMI version.
Version 1.3 or higher should handle it fine.

My monitor is oc'd to 80hz (from 60, description said 60-75 on some shitty retailer site) and I don't have any problems, most games don't accept 80hz vsync though. But as I mostly play fps games I never use vsync.

As far as I know the hdmi versions of the gpu's port and the monitor's port matter, the cable shouldn't.
"the maximum amount of HZ"

The picture and this post made me lol really hard

Correct.
The cable just needs to be "High Speed".
Which I think all modern cables are.
