Am I imaging things or is this overclock so obvious?

I just overclocked my display from 60 to 75Hz and I really can't believe my eyes.. everything seems so smoother.. I never thought a 15Hz overclock can make such a huge difference.. so am I imaging things or can my eye really see that small difference so well? I can just see it from moving my cursor around..

Yep. Thats normal and will eventually get better as you go higher in HZ.

yep, especially at those 'lower' frequencies small changes can make a huge difference. personally i stop seeing a difference at about 90-100 Hz, so that's why i won't ever buy a monitor that goes over 144Hz. i just won't notice any difference :P
