~65-80 hz probably depending on if you get lucky or not.

 

I'd recommend using the patch @Gofspar has a link for, using Linus's guide only got my PB278Q to do 65 hz, with the patch from @Gofspar & using EVGA'S pixel overclock tool, I could overclock my PB278Q to 84 hz.

What FPS is this monitor capable of overclocked?

If it's like the PB278Q then only 60hz. For whatever reason the scaler included in the monitor really prevents overclocking. Supposedly there is a work around, but apparently it just then skips frames (mine had the same issue, and others have shown it). I would recommend a korean monitor if overclocking is what you are looking for.

Drivers for both side have a Pixel Clock limit around 65Hz, my patch just disables the limit in the driver.

 

@OP monitor's overclock better on Nvidia cards also.

PEWDIEPIE DONT CROSS THAT BRIDGE
