How to overclock

xDylanio

Most monitors, even if overclockable, see an improvement of only 1-3 fps. You're not going to double the framerate.

Really not worth the effort.

Boom. A quick Google search helps man. Use your "Custom Resolution" tool in the Nvidia Control panel and follow the steps. Use a camera with ISO control and it will prove if you can do good.

I got mine up to a whopping 65Hz, 70Hz messed it up... then I went back to 60Hz.  I don't trust changing parameters when I don't have knowledge of the hardware capabilities.

 

I did mine through AMD's Catalyst/Crimson software.

Depends on the card, but it can be done though the driver typically. Just be aware you may not get it that far, just like CPU OC'ing (Got mine up to 75Hz though). 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.
