Monitor overclocking?

InfernoUk · 1 Dec 2012 at 18:48

Hey guys

Just wondered after seeing some people OC the catleaps to 1230hz on specific boards, I wanted to know if its possible to OC any other monitor and how?

I have the DGM screens and although they're fine i just wondered if i was missing a bit of a boost at all?

Thanks for any info im interested in getting a few more Hz if possible!

You can try this: http://120hz.net/showthread.php?270-Modified-AMD-ATI-driver-to-allow-higher-refresh-rates

not sure how well it works in other situations but I managed to force 120hz from a single link DVI port

You can set up a custom res with your own refresh rate in the Nvdia control panel.
If it doesn't work, the screen can't support it, obviously.

Sorry but you did not state what GPU you was planning to use, all I had to go on was your sig which says:

i7 D0 920 @ 4.0Ghz, XFX 5850 OC'd, Asus P6t Mobo, 3x2gig Dominator, 74gig Raptor, Coolermaster Cosmos Case.

What I posted above does not apply to only the catleap, I was using the 120hz method I use (with an Asus monitor) as an example, it was restricted to 60hz due to single link but allowed me to create a custom resolution offering up to 120hz.

ah ok, yea i keep forgetting to update my sig, ill do it at xmas when i get all my new parts.

I tried loading up 70hz in the nvidia drivers and it wouldnt display so dosent looks lik an OC is possible!
