Topic: Monitor overclock is dangerous...

I had overclocked my AOC 2757, (60hz to 72hz). It works great.

But... recently, my monitor displays some bad things.

http://www.svp-team.com/forum/misc.php?item=3504

Of course, I can't see these big vertical lines and rainbow lines. but, if you see that more closely, you may find many horizontal gray lines.

I googled this problem, and find what is it.

The person who has same problem said, "It was occurred by over-heating AD board in monitor".

So, I think... my problem is occurred by monitor overclocking.


Fortunately, changing AD board is not expansive. (but, not cheap, too. sad  )

Of course, It will be cheaper than changing panel. but, It based only my think.

So, I need to examine my monitor in AS center.

If my monitor need to change a panel, I will buy some new one.  big_smile

Oh, that seem to be changed the sort.

Cap 2015-06-29 23-09-46-545.png is ASCII ART, KakaoTalk_20150629_222805047.jpg is problem capture.


and... ASCII ART is so impressive, LOL.

If you downsize that picture, you may see more accurately.  smile

So, I think... my problem is occurred by monitor overclocking.

I'm not so sure that monitor "overclocking" leads to higher power consumption.

Because the person who repaired same problem.

He's after-service technician said. if cable of monitor melted by temperature, This problem will be occurred.

So, I think, my monitor was heated. because I have a hot place for monitor. and I had over-clocked it.

And, I'm not a technician. So, I'll ask about this problem when I go to AS center.  smile

Re: Monitor overclock is dangerous...

Nevertheless, if you're that concerned about it, you can always try 48hz instead.

Alternatively, you could even *gasp* lower your screen resolution to something that you know supports 75hz and then make a custom resolution at that same resolution but with a refresh rate of 72hz.

Impossible! Overclocking does not create any extra heat. That is pure bullcrap. Your monitor would have done this one way or another.
I suggest you open it up and put a heatsink on the hot part. Problem solved. This also increases overclock potential on most things.
