What aspect of the overclocking is not working? I'm still able to make custom resolutions with higher than 60hz

i would try to set a custom resolution using different tools. and it would just say "nope cant do" the screen would flicker or anything it would just say "nope your monitor dosent support this" 

 

it worked fine for my 1080p monitors but my 1440p monitor was having issues.

Have you tried in the nvidia control panel, rather than the tools you are using?

Sorry to revive a 20 day old thread, but I'm curious why I haven't heard more about this since I know a lot of other people run Korean screens with overclocks.

I have the same problem with the new Nvidia drivers and my 760 / Qnix 1440p screen. I noticed that it wasn't overclocked to 80hz and I get the same warning in control panel when I try to OC it. I wonder if they are securing GSync's market share. 

so my fix was to overclock it in a much older driver pre win 10. then upgrade to the newest driver. i cant change or tinker with it after that.
