Does it scream rape when you try to look at it

Higher refresh rate = higher maximum fps
a 60hz monitor = 60 fps max
75hz monitor = 75 fps max

it might not sound like it makes a difference, but the difference between 120 fps and 60 fps is as noticeable as the difference between 60 fps and 30 fps (though you are unlikely to be able to overclock a 60hz monitor to 120hz)

I've been running my 'stock' 60hz 1440p IPS panel @ 96hz for almost 2 years now. I could go as high as 120hz, but I don't want to fuck with EDID timings, or potential loss of color accuracy.

1440p at 96hz is pretty glorious though.

I only overclock my monitor for watching anime
>>
>>339539050
*this kills the monitor

>>339540443
Only if you have a garbage monitor.
>>
>>339541147
i have a shitty monitor and i've been running 75hz for over two years now.

the dead pixel it had when i bought it is still the only dead pixel it has.

everything else is also still normal.
>>
my dell says optimal resolution is 900p 60fps, but can go up to 75fps

most monitors can do this, but it may wear it out faster

This one. I likes it fine.

Is this a troll thread to encourage fools to wreck their monitors?

Wat
What determines how far i could push it?
>>
>>339542245
How retarded you are
>>
Its worth it to push it to 72 hz just to get rid of 3:2 pulldown when you're watching 24 fps content.
>>
Why do you guys want to run your monitor to 75 hz when you run games in 60 hz?
>>
>>339543636
it wouldn't matter then, but if you can run your games at 75 then you should if your monitor is also updating at 75.
>>
>>339543313
But then 30 and 60 fps content is messed up.
