Overclocking 120Hz panel gone wrong?

[TheRealSlimShady]

So the other day, inspired by Linus' video on overclocking monitors, I tried the same on my Samsung S23A750D 120Hz panel with Custom Resolution Utility as I have a AMD card. I tried it with 125Hz and it worked....for a while. So I gave up on it and tried to go back to 120Hz. However, 120hz is not available in the catalyst control panel or in windows. I have it running at 100Hz but I need 120Hz for 3D. All help is appreciated!

2 things you can try:

-> make a custom resolution at 120Hz

-> Try to uninstall your graphic card drivers, restart your computer, and install the latest drivers.

If you have the same issue if you plug the monitor onto another computer, then you broke the monitor.

Thanks, I edited the 125Hz monitor profile and it changed back to 120Hz after a reboot:)

I don't think overclocking 120hz panels are a gd idea to anyone wanting to try it out. They are sort of pushed to the limits anyway.

Yes, yes they are.

Glad your problem is sorted. Big thanks for coming back with your results.
