Have anyone tried to OC their Display?

I have BenQ RL2755HM is it possible to overclocked?

What are the pros and cons of monitor overclocking?

Well you get higher refresh rate from it, so if you are using V-sync, you would get more fps. If your GPU can handle it.

I don't see any point in "overclocking" monitor from 60Hz to 75Hz ... I did that with mine and there was no difference to me.

Yea you can overclock it. I overclocked mine to 71Hz. You prob won't really notice it but it might help slightly in games like csgo. If you want to just go ahead and try it.

Unsure what power supply to pick?

Check out my HTPC build.

I have an Asus MX259H overclocked to 72 Hz. The difference isn't "in your face" but it is definitely noticeable when there is a lot of motion going on the screen.
 I can definitely tell the difference though - for example, in Skyrim, the game physics engine bugs out at FPS beyond 60 so I use a mod to cap it at 58 to prevent it. Sometimes the FPS capper stops working properly and when that happens, I can definitely that it's going beyond 60 FPS with perfect accuracy just by recognizing the unusual fluidity of the motion on screen even before any physics problems start happening.

I did that and there was a pretty noticeable difference. It's well worth it imo. When I drop down to 60fps I can actually tell pretty well.
