Cheap display overclockable to 100-120 hz

Hi, I wonder if there is a display with high chances to be able to be overlcocked to those rates. I dont mind other things, like resolution, so its fine if theyre 720p, 900p, etc.

The same for me!
Looking for an internal replacement display. Don't care a lot about resolution (down to 720p or bit less) if I can get a safe OC to ~ 100Hz or higher.
I have a Laptop (Lenovo 700-15ISK), it's 15.2" display is pretty much locked to 60Hz (black screen for any custom resolution with more than 60Hz). So much for that.
I also have a 17.3" HSD173PUW1 display from an old laptop, it doesn't get higher than 69 Hz sadly (display otherwise says "input not supported").

Now I have been on the look to replace these or buy an additional display. For me, I don't care if its 15.2" or 17.3" (because 15.2" I would integrate into my Laptop and 17.2" I would connect to a dedicated LED controller to take the laptop display on the go as an external display).

I wanna share my approch to this, with which I'm finding a lot of 120 Hz factory displays:
  • I checked out the first pages of results, confirmed that it says 120 hz on the product page, and then looked up in ebay if I can get them there
  • here comes the list:
As you can see, these screens all support 120Hz by factory. I am missing out on overclockable good candidates completely because I don't have a way of finding those. The list for factory 120Hz internal displays can be continued for a long time, many results show up with this way of searching. Maybe someone else can continue this list.

The prices (60-100€) seem reasonable but I believe there are some way better priced overclockable candidates. If someone can tell me about a < 50€ display, not 120hz factory but overclockable, I would be very happy.

P.S.: List for external displays: https://www.blurbusters.com/overclock/1 ... -monitors/

Probably not, i've tried to OC a few Dells and you can get them 75hz+ but they all frame skip. but you can try yourself it will probably be fine.
