Today, I bought and mounted three of these : https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06XJ6STMH/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I noticed in the reviews of similar monitors, it says while these are not "native 75hz", if Freesync is enabled you can turn them to 75HZ monitors, even if you don't have an AMD GPU.

 

I enabled freesync in my monitor settings ( I dont know if im suppoused to do it in a program somewhere too ) but when I try to change the monitor to a custom resolution in NVidia control panel, none of the monitors can get past 70HZ without flashing tons. Am I going about this wrong? These are advertised as 75hz monitors; why aren't they running at 75hz?

somtimes a monitors advertisment is based on its maximum hz not on the hz on native resolution

 

i think on native resolution just have 60hz panel but maybe that particular panel can run 75hz on 640x480

 

hence why if u go past 70hz it starts flashing ( ur over clocking the panel by atleast 10hz already then )

 

to ensure u get the hz desired when buying a monitor make sure that the advertised hz is on the NATIVE resolution

 

also the monitor is advertised in KHZ that is not HZ but a clock rate

 

75 KHz <

 

the monitor is actually a 60hz panel :)

I cannot give you solution.

 

I almost bought the same monitor, until i read bad reviews of this monitor. Some horizontal lines appearing on higher refreshes. 

 

I have samsung freesync 72hz for similar price now. I suggest you do the same. 

 

Try running it at different hz. like 72. Or 59.999 or whatever. Try setting in windows setting also.

im pretty sure the 75hz works, but the panel basicly cannot handle it and goes full retard

no(as in the panel is 60hz), edited post with more information

 

the 75hz might work but that would be a 15hz overclock on the monitor :)

that means its capable of 75 hz overclock. go to nvidia control panel --> displays ---> create custom resolution ---> make it the monitors' resolution and set hz to 75 and then make it cvt reduced blank. click apply. if the screen goes black for more than 30 seconds then press escape. if it works it works. but you will hardly see the difference in 60hyz and 75

overclocking the monitor to 75hz would require the proper internal clock speeds aswell, if those are set wrong he wouldnt achieve 75hz

yes he would. overclocking hz is as easy as i said it is. i overclocked my 144hz monitor to 155hz over hdmi in about 5 secojnds

Or maybe its as simple as he's using SL DVI cables? :D 

But you're probably right about the former...

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

Just because you managed to overclock your monitor doesn't mean his monitor will overclock as well ;)

144 to 155hz is not even a 10% overclock, any monitor can do that

 

60hz to 75hz is more then 20%

 

aswell if a monitor is set to a specific hz that it CAN run but it wont run it would require the proper internal clock speeds aswell

it isnt percents, its numbers. not sure how you can have a statement about how overclocking is hard. its as simply as i put it.

most monitors bought new get shipped with dual layer cable these days :) ( especially with gsync/freesync support )

 

i doubt its that :) i think he just needs to set hes internal clocks right and its ready to go ( these clocks should be inside the monitors manual )

 

all of the clocks and speeds the monitor can stable run at is in the monitors user guide / manual

I'll have you know my 1440p monitor only came with a SL DVI-D cable! (okay, its supposed to be a DL cable but its not constructed properly or something?)

some actually call it layer some call it link hehe :) ( dual layer dvi or dual link dvi, depends on the person really xD , both are a proper name for it hehe due to it having more layers of connectors or well links xD )

 

if ur monitor came only with a single layer cable thats liek wtf ... i would have contacted them and returned the monitor if they didnt send me a proper cable with it :S

Fair enough. 

 

Oh I'm fine with it, its HDMI and DP port does the job regardless so couldn't be arsed sending it back :D. Plus at least its HDMI port supports its native res and refresh rate, looking at you BenQ XL2410T (from 2011/2012, primary monitor, made me buy an active DP to DL DVI adapter :/
