Is it possible to unlock full 75Hz of my monitor?

[Oberon.Smite]

So my Dell E228WFP is labeled at a max refresh rate of 75Hz, but I can only run at 60Hz. Is it meant to be that way? I'd really enjoy those extra 15fps.

how are you connecting to it?

Simply that's what Dell is producing the monitor for.

 

If the panel is going to 75HZ, I think you may be able to overclock it.

There's a HDMI cable running from to GPU to an HDMI female to DVI male adapter.

Set a custom resolution or use Evga Pixel Clock to overclock it, found here: https://teksyndicate.com/node/134989

You can overclock a monitor, I'd overclock it to 75Hz to get that extra 15fps

Apparently native refresh rate is 75Hz. Not OC

I know that but it seems he can't access it so I gave him solutions.

Yeah ik, I was just saying, it's not hugely common to see 75Hz native monitors

Ok will try guys. BTW yes I agree rather akward refresh rate.

Unfortunetely I don't have an nVidia card, so yea....

 

Any other solutions? Might try to tinker in Catalyst.

The 75Hz refresh rate is only for certain resolutions. My TV has the same deal but it is only on 1200x700 (or something similar) or lower.

There is a way to set custom resolutions with AMD.. Check RadeonPro

 

I forgot the overclocking tool was nvidia only sorry

Doesn't work, but thanks anyways. I'll just stick with the 60Hz.

Most "75Hz" LCDs are 60Hz at max resolution. You can only use 75Hz at low resolutions. My PA248Q and U2414H are both 60Hz monitors, but they can access 75Hz at low res though, and if you look up specs the PA248Q is listed for ~50-75Hz by ASUS. Nevertheless it only does 60Hz at full res, even when I try to overclock it.

THIS.

My 1080p panel is 75Hz,.. only at 1366x768 or lower, otherwise,.. anything higher and its back to 60hz.

I was able to overclock my Asus PA248Q over DisplayPort using Intel HD 4600 Graphics Control Panel Custom resolution with CVT-RB timing standard. 

Monitor hardware info
1920 x 1200

93KHz / 75Hz

However, my brother has pointed out that the UFO at .testufo.com is showing inconsistent motion judder, more so compared to 60hz, even though its reporting 75Hz.

Not entirely sure, what's going on.
